Story:
Psychological thriller directed by Olivia Wilde. Don’t Worry Darling (2022) follows Alice (Florence Pugh) and Jack (Harry Styles), a husband and wife who are living in a 1950s set utopian experimental community called Victory, espoused by Victory Project CEO, Frank (Chris Pine), who is equal parts corporate visionary and motivational life coach. Life is perfect, with every resident’s needs met by the company. All they ask in return is discretion and unquestioning commitment to the Victory cause. But when cracks in their idyllic life begin to appear, exposing flashes of something much more sinister lurking beneath the attractive façade, Alice can’t help questioning exactly what they’re doing in Victory, and why. Just how much is Alice willing to lose to expose what’s really going on in this paradise?
We’ll add the best quotes once the movie is released and we’ve had a chance to watch it, but for now, here’s a small selection.

Jack: [kisses her] Bye.
Alice: You and me.
Jack: Always. You and me.
Frank: All of you wives, we men, we ask a lot. We ask for strength. Food at home, a house cleaned. And discretion, above all else.
Peg: Victory has things money can’t buy.
Peg: I live next door. You wouldn’t believe the things I’ve heard.
