Spoiler Warning!!!!!!

Don't Worry Darling is a psychological thriller film released in theaters on September 23, 2022, and is one of the best movies of 2022. Just like all the drama that followed the film leading up to its release, this movie kept me in my seat the entire time. The movie follows Alice Chambers (Florence Pugh) and husband Jack Chambers (Harry Styles) living in Victory, an ever- so- perfect town with women serving their husbands as they head off for a hard day at work. Until one woman challenges Alice's thoughts on what exactly she and her husband are doing in Victory. Florence Pugh's performance as Alice was absolutely remarkable and Harry Styles's shockingly charming and elevating performance as Jack completed the horrifying aspects of the film. After backlash at the Venice Film Festival, where the film first premiered, I was disappointed and nervous to see the movie because of the exciting buildup created however DON'T WORRY DARLING, it was incredible. The cinematography of Olivia Wilde had me sitting on the edge of my seat wondering what was gonna happen next.  Even with the mixed reviews of the public, Don't Worry Darling is up for speculation in Oscar nominations and nominated for a people's choice award.
