Abandon is a 2002 American psychological thriller drama film written and directed by Stephen Gaghan in his directorial debut. It stars Katie Holmes as a college student whose boyfriend (Charlie Hunnam) disappeared two years previously. Despite being set at an American university, much of the movie was filmed in Canada at McGill University's McConnell Hall. It is based on the book Adams Fall by Sean Desmond. The book was re titled Abandon for the movie tie in paperback printing. The film co stars Zooey Deschanel, Gabrielle Union and Melanie Lynskey, with Benjamin Bratt playing the detective investigating the boyfriend's disappearance. It received generally negative reviews.

Brilliant, senior college student Katie Burke is struggling to deal with the stress of completing her thesis and succeeding in an upcoming rigorous interview process. To make matters even more complicated, Detective Wade Handler, a recovering alcoholic, is tasked with reopening the two year old police investigation into the disappearance of her boyfriend, Embry Larkin. An orphaned young man of considerable means, Larkin had purchased two tickets to Athens, Greece before his disappearance: the tickets had never been used, and Embry's financial assets had not been touched since his disappearance. Katie begins to see Larkin lurking around campus, stalking her. In her meetings with Detective Handler, Katie tells him about her seeing Larkin. He continues his investigation even though his preliminary conclusion is that Larkin is, indeed, dead. She supplies to Handler notes that Larkin had written to her, a two year old note and a note scribbled on a postcard ad, presumably new. Handler takes them to a forensics expert who finds that they are both two years old. Along with flashbacks of her early childhood when her father abandoned her and her mother, Katie also has flashbacks of her relationship with Embry Larkin, which are exciting and pleasurable at first but then become violent. Handler finds out that Larkin was hostile toward Katie's male friends on campus. One of these friends, Harrison, an admirer of Katie, turns up missing until he is seen with Katie and her other friends on their graduation day. Katie has encounters or, possibly, flashbacks of being with Embry Larkin either in a café, the college library, or at the Larkin family country house. She is trying to find Harrison, whom she thinks Larkin has abducted or killed. After a violent encounter with Larkin, Katie flees the country house and goes to Detective Handler's home. She finds comfort with him, and the two of them begin to have a relationship. Handler resigns from the police force, intending to retreat to his cabin in New Hampshire, possibly with Katie, who hints to her friends that she might take a year break from college. Just as he leaves on his last day, the forensic expert gives him the troubling results of his analysis of Embry Larkin's two notes. Handler is devastated to realize that Katie is mentally ill, and he starts drinking again. Handler keeps his rendezvous with Katie on campus near the old, abandoned college hall that will shortly be demolished to make room for a new building. Katie tells him that Embry Larkin had assaulted her and gone to the abandoned hall. Handler goes into the lower level of the hall in search of Larkin. Katie follows him. In the course of the search, Katie has a flashback of her actual last meeting with Larkin. Larkin tells her that he does not want to take her to Athens and dismisses her as unappealing to him. In anger Katie kills Larkin with a rock, and pushes his body into a deep pool of water. Handler tenderly confronts Katie in her hallucination, telling her that there is nothing there. Like Larkin two years before he tells Katie that she cannot come with him, that he will find help for her. Handler spots Larkin's skeleton in the deep pool. Katie then kills Handler with a rock as she did Larkin, pushing his body into the pool. As a psychotic, traumatized by being abandoned by her father, Katie killed the two men who would dare abandon her again. The demolition of the old building and the construction of the new building would hide the bodies. Fast forward to after Katie's graduation: she is employed by the financial firm that interviewed her, presumably facilitated by a romantic relationship with a young, senior employee, who is close to being made a partner. He tells her that since company rules forbid "interoffice romance," he needs to break off his relationship with her. A familiar look passes over Katie's face.

The film opened at #7 at the U. S. box office, taking $5,064,077 in its first opening weekend.
