Wilde has also cited Betty Friedan’s earth-shattering book, The Feminine Mystique, which chronicled the dissatisfaction of the American housewife and helped launch second-wave feminism in the U.S., as an influence.

That's where Don't Worry Darling falters. There's an effort to make the answer to the mystery — which I will not reveal, obviously — feel timely and relevant and even daring. That answer is a perfectly passable, if not terribly interesting, solution to the baffling situation Alice has been in. The problem is that the answer to the mystery's central question doesn't fit terribly well with the particular pieces of evidence it needs to explain.Rubin, Rebecca (April 26, 2022).

As Pugh's Alice becomes more and more unnerved by her surroundings, the script calls on her to become more confrontational, and as the tension in her performance rises, that curiosity and that unease rise with it. The film holds this pose probably too long, playing with its contrast of the ominous and the aesthetically beautiful, including in the increasingly literal score (with its creepy, breathy "ha-ha-ha-ha" vocals). And then, eventually, as it must, it answers the question that lies at its heart, the way "whodunit?" lies at the heart of an Agatha Christie novel. Here, that question is just, "What is going on?"

At the CinemaCon 2022 for the stage at Caesars Palace, Wilde confirmed that the idea of the film was inspired by Inception, The Matrix, and The Truman Show. [44] [45] The trailer, which was also shown at CinemaCon, was released online on May 2, 2022. [46] A teaser poster was released on June 16, 2022, and a second trailer was released on July 21, 2022. Florence Pugh, it’s clear, was/is steamed at Olivia Wilde. She wouldn’t so much as look at her when the film was introduced at Venice. But why? If you had just scanned the headlines and soaked up the highly speculative coverage of the “Don’t Worry Darling” troubles, you might easily think that what happened offscreen amounted to some sort of high-school tiff. One rumor that drove the story is that Pugh was mad at Wilde for disappearing with Harry for long periods on the set. But why would she be so furious about that? You can imagine how this might “read” to a 14-year-old Harry Styles fan (or the 14-year-old Harry Styles fan in a lot of us). According to my sources, the feud between Wilde and Pugh,which sounds like it could be a one-way feud, relates more to what happened with LaBeouf — the difficulties that situation presented, how they were resolved, and the competing spin zones, even extending to a conflict over what the rehearsal schedule would be. That said, plenty of people who work on movies together end up disliking each other, and they’re still able to paper over their antipathies for the sake of the film.Lent, Caitlin (September 1, 2022).
