Director Olivia Wilde and screenwriter Katie Silberman aim to give the female gaze its due with their genre-blending thriller 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Don’t Worry Darling. Set in 1950s Palm Springs, it presents Alice (Florence Pugh) and Jack Chambers (Harry Styles) as the newesꦐt residents of the insular, gated company t𒁃own of Victory.
It’s through Alice’s eyes that the audience experiences Victory, and Silberman tells 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:SFX magazine that she provides the "sli🌱ght tilt of focus that opens up a whole new world, where maybe you think you know what’s going on, but you don’t.' As they crafted the script around Alice, she says they learned that the audience can weather a multitude of reveals if their heroine is compelling enough.
. "So we were beyond lucky to have Florence in that role, because she’s so vibrant. She’s just so charming and lovely and vivacious, but also really smart and really tough and brave."We knew the role was going to require all those things, which is hard to find in one person, and she has them. The pe꧋rformance she gives is beyond a writer’s wildest dreams."
Silberman also praises the entire cast for their p🗹art in selling the allure of this place, from Harry Styles and Gemma Chan to Chris Pine, whose Frank is seemingly controlling the proverbial strings of the whole town. "I had an amazing time collaborating with him on the role of Frank," she enthuses. "Even the little things in the way 𒉰Frank would speak or approach someone, he had a really distinct and wonderful idea of who this person was.
"And so that role really became a chemical equation of the Frank that we had written, and how we were able to mold him and his ideasꦫ int🌼o it. He’s so good at so many things that it’s incredibly disarming. And that unpredictability is something that works with comedies and thrillers. It’s something that we were able to bring in, because you’re trying to keep people off-balance."
Hoping to appeal to those hungry for the unexpected and a story different from the normal blockbuster fare, Silberman says she hopes audiences find Don’t Worry Darling to be one of those movies that has people excitedly tal🍸king about it afterward in the cinem𓃲a car park.
"I think it’s thrilling and sexy a🎀nd beautiful," she enthuses. "I’m excited for people to see it and to be able to have those conversations afterward. And to see so🐼mething I don’t think they’ve ever seen before."
