Don't Worry Darling
Director: Olivia Wilde
Actors: Florence Pugh, Harry Styles, Chris Pine
PlotIn an idyllic 1950s company town, Victory, the lives of the burgeoning community mirror a postcard picture of the American Dream: manicured lawns, happy families, and a tight-knit sense of togetherness. The town is populated by the men who work for the enigmatic Victory Project and their families. Each day, the men head out to toil on the top-secret work overseen by the charismatic leader, Frank, leaving their wives, including the young and beautiful Alice, to spend their days enjoying the beauty and luxury of their community, with all its comfort and conveniences.
However, the glossy veneer of this perfect societal microcosm begins to crack when Alice witnesses strange occurrences that don't align with the town's polished facade. Her growing unease is met with dismissals and patronizing reassurance from her husband, Jack, and the broader community, suggesting she's simply troubled or confused. But as her curiosity turns to investigation, she realizes that her picturesque life may be a carefully spun illusion. Distrust and tension escalate as Alice seeks to uncover the truth behind the Victory Project, challenging the fabric of her reality and the tight controls placed around her life.
