The year's most drama filled movie, both onscreen and behind the scenes, tops the DVD releases for the week of Nov. 29.
"Don't Worry Darling": A housewife in a utopian 1950s community starts to question her existence when strange things begin to happen in this film that generated plenty of off-camera headlines as well. Starring Florence Pugh, Harry Styles, Chris Pine and Olivia Wilde, who also directed.
In her review for Tribune News Service, critic Katie Walsh found the film to be "a dizzyingly gorgeous and intoxicating project that combines 'The Stepford Wives,' 'Gaslight' and 'The Truman Show' into an aesthetically retro riff of modern social commentary." Despite this, however, "below the shiny, stylized surface of 'Don’t Worry Darling,' there is just a jumble of provocative and ultimately incoherent ideas."
