1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: Good morning, Ben, Good morning. Going at the fact that,

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:08,200
Speaker 1: for some reason, there's so much talk around this movie

3
00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:11,639
Speaker 1: Don't Worry, Darling, it's almost refreshing to talk about the

4
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 1: actual movie itself right now. Yes, but but do we

5
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:16,720
Speaker 1: need to recap some of the drama. But just if

6
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,880
Speaker 1: we can recap it really quick, we definitely can. Okay.

7
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 1: So this is a movie directed by Olivia Wilde, who's

8
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,640
Speaker 1: an actor herself. She made her debut feature a couple

9
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 1: of years ago with Book Smart, which was a really

10
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 1: cool coming of age film, and everyone thought, oh, I

11
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 1: can't wait to see what Olivia wild does next. She

12
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 1: is a director on the fast track to success, so

13
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: they've given her a bigger budget to make this kind

14
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 1: of psychological thriller Don't Worry Darling, which everybody was initially

15
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 1: super excited about. And then this drama started to emerge

16
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: from on set. So after the film wrap there started

17
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:51,160
Speaker 1: to be rumors that this one of the stars, Florence Pew,

18
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 1: hated Olivia Wilde. They had stoushes on the set because

19
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 1: Olivia wild may have been hooking up with Florence's co

20
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 1: star and on screen husband, Harry Styles from one direction

21
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 1: and now we know Olivia wild Is with Harry Styles

22
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: as she's not with Jason Sedikis anymore. And then there

23
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,759
Speaker 1: was then so there was the rumors of this kind

24
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 1: of acrimony on the set and that, and then also

25
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,399
Speaker 1: that Olivia Wilde had sacked Shilah buff who was originally

26
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:22,400
Speaker 1: in the Harry Styles role, because Florence didn't feel safe

27
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 1: around Shia, which is he's kind of a method actor,

28
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 1: so he's kind of a bit of a loose unit.

29
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 1: And then and then he said no, he wasn't fire

30
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,680
Speaker 1: and so there was that side of it going on.

31
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 1: And then finally there was spitgate at the film's premiere

32
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: in Europe at a film festival, where Harry Styles went

33
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: to sit down next to Chris Pine in the auditorium

34
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 1: and it looked like maybe he spat on him, But

35
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: then you know, close to look at the footage, maybe

36
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 1: that didn't happen. Everybody denied it, but one thing is

37
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 1: for sure, you know what a spitgate just dribbling. And

38
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 1: then Olivia got served custody when she was on stage

39
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: presenting the film at a convention. So drama has followed

40
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 1: this film every ever since the filming wrapped. But now

41
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: it's actually in cinemas as of today. We can talk

42
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 1: about whether the movie is any good or not, and

43
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 1: so without giving too much away, because it's a film

44
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 1: that relies on a couple of big twists right to

45
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 1: really make sense. It's set in this sort of nineteen

46
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 1: fifties era community in like a Palm Springs kind of

47
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 1: place in the American desert, right, like beautiful architecture, mid century.

48
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,640
Speaker 1: If you love that sort of stuff, you'll just froth

49
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: over this film. And everybody lives in this community a

50
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,799
Speaker 1: part of something called the Victory Project, which is run

51
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 1: by this mastermind played by Chris Pine. You don't really

52
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: find out what it's all about until towards the end,

53
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: but all you need to know is it's kind of

54
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 1: nineteen fifties value. So the women's place is in the home,

55
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 1: making dinner for her husband, who leaves every day in

56
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 1: like a beautiful kind of like you know, nineteen fifties

57
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: Oldsmobile Cadillac kind of a car. They go off to work.

58
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: No one knows what they're doing. It's kind of secretive.

59
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: They come back in the evening, the wife is there

60
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 1: with the roast dinner on the table. You know, cocktail

61
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: in hand, and everything's just peachy behind the white picket fence. Yeah,

62
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,839
Speaker 1: very wife, very Stepford Wives, Truman Show. That's the kind

63
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: of vibe that you're getting here. But then Florence Pugh's

64
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: character starts to realize that maybe there's something wrong with

65
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: this perfect world that she can't quite put her finger on.

66
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: But she becomes obsessed with it in finding out what

67
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,640
Speaker 1: it is. And there's a neighbor who maybe starts acting

68
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: a little strangely. She gets a weird vibe from Chris

69
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: Pine's character, and so she just can't let it go.

70
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 1: And even though Harry Styles, her husband, keeps saying to

71
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 1: a note like, you've got to stop this. We're going

72
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 1: to get kicked out of the Victory Project. You're making

73
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: me look bad at the company, even though you have

74
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: no idea what he's doing. And so it creates all

75
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: this tension between Chris Pine and Florence Pugh's character, between

76
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: Florence Pugh and Harry Styles. Olivia Wilde is in the

77
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 1: film as well. She plays another one of the wives

78
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: and Florence Pugh's character his best friend, and so it

79
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 1: becomes this psychological thriller that at times is really kind

80
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 1: of quite art house in the way it goes about it,

81
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: like it's almost surreal, Like it cuts away to flashbacks

82
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: and weird and weird kind of stuff, surreal stuff that

83
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 1: comes on the screen, probably a little bit more artsy

84
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: than people it would expect from the trailer. It's kind

85
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 1: of like, you know, those all those Jordan Peel movies

86
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 1: that we've spoken about before, like get Out and US

87
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 1: and Nope, most recently, this is like a Jordan Peele

88
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: movie for white people. So is that you know what

89
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So all the characters are white, and it's

90
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,479
Speaker 1: kind of like almost verging on is it kind of

91
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: a horror movie like it's it's but it's kind of

92
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 1: like sinister, very sinister undertones. And then the twist when

93
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,039
Speaker 1: it comes at the end, it just makes you realize,

94
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 1: you know what, everything I've been watching for the last

95
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 1: hour and a half is a complete lie. And I

96
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 1: didn't know what this movie was about at all. So

97
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,839
Speaker 1: it's one of those kind of twists, like a real

98
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 1: big like a like a fight club you know, kind

99
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:04,479
Speaker 1: of I'm game little twist. Yeah, yeah, and so, and

100
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,279
Speaker 1: the critics have kind of been really savage towards this

101
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: film because I think that whatever reason they have bought

102
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 1: into the drama, they don't like Olivia Wild anymore. After

103
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 1: previously saying she was a genius and so's they've said that,

104
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 1: you know, the film has all of these problems. It's

105
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: actually not that bad. Like, it's a really solid film.

106
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,159
Speaker 1: I like Olivia Wild because I think of her from

107
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: House Yeah, and I loved how her performances and she

108
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 1: looks good on the camera. Harry, how many give it

109
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 1: a breaks? Look, I would give this three. Give it

110
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: a break. It's a very solid film. Go check it out.

111
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,160
Speaker 1: Take your mind up. Don't buy into the drama. Ah no,

112
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 1: you've got me. Ignore all that, no the noise ye,

113
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: and don't gets bad on
