8/31/2023 0 Comments Harry styles olivia wilde memesThere’s a circular theme present in Don’t Worry Darling and, by the end of the movie, you’ll see that it fits perfectly with the theme of the film. Florence Pugh as Alice and Harry Styles as Jack in Don’t Worry Darling. Alice is very open about the fact that she doesn’t want to have children. Interracial marriages aren’t frowned upon. People are predominantly white, though not exclusively. It captures a version of a ‘50s community on a cul-de-sac that feels a bit different from portrayals of conservative, white small towns that often appear on screen. But even if I didn’t see the twist coming, I knew something wasn’t right in Victory from the beginning. There’s a big reveal in the film’s third act that perfectly wraps up all the unexplained bits of storytelling that were left hanging up to that point. The movie, which Wilde has described as a psychological thriller, encourages Alice - and the viewer - to dare to break the rules and ask questions. It won’t take long until she too realizes nothing can be this idyllic. She manages to warn Alice that something isn’t right in Victory. Margaret (Kiki Layne), another Victory resident, is said to be unwell. That is, until the veneer of perfection starts chipping away. Wilde herself plays Bunny, one of the veteran and more content housewives in Victory.Īnd the cycle of cooking breakfast, housecleaning, having sex and partying goes on and on. Sometimes there’s a neighborhood party to go to after that, with music, dancing and continuous drinking. She doesn’t turn away from Pugh’s face when her character is having sex. He’ll go down on her before they have dinner Wilde has made a point of only showing women orgasming in the movie. There’s a roast on the table and music playing on the record player. When Jack gets home at night, Alice is waiting for him, perfectly dressed and coiffed. They also attend the demanding ballet classes conducted by the perfectionist Shelley (Gemma Chan). The women stay at home, cleaning the bathrooms, vacuuming, and making sure there’s something home-cooked on the table for dinner. During the day, he and the rest of the men in Victory leave their wives at home and head to their very important and secret jobs in the “development of progressive materials,” whatever that means. She’s a housewife living in Victory, a utopian community that seems like something out of 1950s Palm Springs. In Don’t Worry Darling Florence Pugh ( Little Women) plays Alice. Director/producer/actor Olivia Wilde and Chris Pine on the set of Don’t Worry Darling. So I went to watch Don’t Worry Darling, which debuts in theaters this Friday, September 23, and put aside everything else to assess it for its cinematic merits. Who would?īut I know the movie - or the personal lives of those involved in it - wouldn’t have been judged so meticulously had Wilde been a man. I also couldn’t get enough of the Chris Pine memes. I’ll admit: I too obsessed over the premiere of the movie at the Venice International Film Festival and read more than one take on the infamous Spit-Gate. Olivia Wilde’s second directorial achievement after her Booksmart (2019) debut has been mired in constant gossip and speculation. Don’t believe everything you’ve read or heard online about Don’t Worry Darling.
