How it was made Don’t Worry Dear:
Director-producer Olivia Wilde says she was very intrigued by the concept of Don’t Worry My Darling. That idea of living in a society designed specifically for the comfort of its residents, until the protagonist realizes that it is a corrupt society.
For the actress Florence Pugh, who plays Alice, it has been very interesting to attack the character. Delve into when she stopped liking her life in that place, pretending to be obedient so the rest of the residents don’t suspect her. Along with this, the director adds that she loves psychological thrillers, and she was very excited to make one with a woman as the lead who was as wonderful, as complex and with as much background as Alice played by Florence Pugh.
For her part, writer-producer Katie Silberman explains that Shane and Carey Van Dyke pitched the idea to her as a wonderful allegory for feminism. Thus, the scriptwriter and the director met to break down the story, researching the role of women at that time, the Manhattan project and secret societies.
In this way, the theme of the tape for Florence Pugh is to show control, manipulation, oppression, relationships, how to keep your life perfect and what to do when it stops being perfect. While for Olivia Wilde, the key to choosing the cast was not so much that they knew how to interpret, but that you bring that human compassion and different touches of personality.
Regarding the protagonist, the director indicates that Florence Pugh is very organic and very human, and that was what she wanted to focus on. However, finding Jack was more complicated. Thinking of Harry Styles as the perfect counterpart for the leading actress, considering the singer as someone intelligent, honest and fearless. On the other hand, the actor Nick Kroll believes that the fact that he was chosen to play the director’s husband was a compliment to him.
Along with this, the rest of the cast indicates brushstrokes of their characters. From the freedom offered by the director to build her interpretations and how fun and enjoyable the filming was for everyone. While the filmmaker assures that she chose Chris Pine for having a beautiful and seductive voice, but also the necessary intelligence to make Frank’s story credible.
Olivia Wilde goes on to state that she was inspired to create Victoria by the Rat Pack of the 50s, with all the excess and debauchery without consequences. While production designer Katie Byron talks about the utopian architecture of Victoria, where the Canyon View development was designed in the 1960s by architect William Kris el, who wanted to build houses that were simple, beautiful and surrounded by greenery.
When the director was looking for locations for the shoot, she saw the house where Slim Aarons filmed Poolside Gossip, and she wanted to shoot in such a location. While Adrianne Phillips, the costume designer, the filmmaker considers one of the best in the history of cinema, who reflected the dresses of Victoria’s women from the point of view of the man of each home and the particular tastes of she.
In turn, Olivia Wilde confesses that she wanted to work with cinematographer Matty Libatique because he understands visual language and camera movement well, who tries to make it look like photojournalism for lighting.
