Three new movies on this week's podcast. Not a surprise, we both disliked Don't Worry Darling (although we have lots nice to say about Florence Pugh). But the more interesting conversations revolved around the new David Bowie documentary and the divisive Athena. Hear the whole episode down below.
Harry Styles got a lot of press for Don't Worry Darling and that whole "Did he spit on Chris Pine?" nonsense. But that's not the only film he has premiering at the fall film festivals. For Screen International, I reviewed My Policeman. (Leans over to date: "He's the policeman.")
Before its Venice premiere, Don't Worry Darling had to deal with a lot of bad buzz, which all started in earnest after I saw the film a few weeks ago. I bring that up only to mention that my review doesn't take any of that into account. Over at Screen International, I lament a fairly disappointing sophomore effort from director Olivia Wilde.
The other day, Harry Styles revealed the tracklist for his forthcoming album, Harry's House. I always find this part of the album promotion cycle amusing, so I wrote about it for MEL.
