Apologies to Olivia Wilde! It was Olivia Munn on 'Attack of the Show.' |

I was not expecting that, Magda, but I see it now! 😂 Everybody on twitter was commenting lots of things about him except the most evident! LOL.
He looks really strange, perhaps it is because of the super blond hair but his facial skin looks abnormally smooth and whiter. Even mllemass commented he looked good and I couldn't stop thinking he looked exactly likeMichael Jackson! |

He wasn’t cast as the villain. If that would be the case, people would have commenting it! Actually, some people were talking about him like he were a very respected serious actor trapped with novices and I don’t doubt he is serious about his work but he most frequently than not is talked like a male bimbo! Now people are naming his college and his bachelor title and suggesting that Style is pretty dumb! Lol

This is a remaining that press and social media isn’t THAT relevant in the real world. Of course, One Direction fans are much more powerful!

We all knew the movie would be popular, but that doesn’t change the fact that it’s a bad movie. Of course, Harry Styles has loads of fans, but Florence Pugh can do no wrong according to her fans, too.

I think more than a few on Twitter were, at least, hoping for it to bomb based on moral issues and I remember a review claiming that Style’s career as an actor must end (although maybe it was about his other movie!). I haven’t seen his acting soIm not defending it but it’s clear it wasn’t a good faith comment!
I think they are still trying to provoke polemic,

There’s a Pitch Meeting video for Don’t Worry Darling. The past month or so, I’ve become obsessed with Pitch Meetings and Ryan George, the guy who makes the videos. He even has his own YouTube channel where he posts other funny stuff. I think I’ve watched every video now, and they’re hilarious. It doesn’t even matter that I haven’t seen most of the movies he talks about. And he’s adorable and Canadian!

Dan and I just watched Don't Worry Darling last night.
It held my interest throughout but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone else I know.
Mainly because the movie simply falls apart after a promising first half. It's all style and boy does it do a bang up job of setting up that era!
But there's no substance behind the "style". And that's a fatal mistake. The last half of the film just collapses into a big muddle of "kitchen sink" writing.
I don't really know any of the actors, save Chris Pine, and I really didn't listen to any of the scandal "controversy", so I just judged the movie on its merits as a piece of entertainment.
PINE was oK in his role but nothing special. Harry Styles was not OK - he was the weakest of the cast... stilted and distanced in his approach. Florence Pugh was was dominant in her role but was given little to work with in the second half. The director, Olivia Wilde, also had a big supporting role as FP's character's best friend and she fares well enough.
There's a useless car chase scene in the end which was completely stupid.
And that's just one of the near fatal flaws in this production! There were others. Too bad, because I initially liked the energy and sparkle this film had in its first half.
In the end the movie is like eating cotton candy - pretty to look at, no nutrients at all, melts away into nothingness and leaves you with a bit of a stomachache!
