Alice (Pugh) lives with her husband Jack (Styles) in the pleasant 1950s suburban company town of Victory, where the men work for the top-secret Victory Project while their partners stay home and play housekeeper. However, cracks soon start to show in the seemingly idyllic utopian community, which causes Alice to begin questioning everything she thinks she knows…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Olivia Wilde’s second film as director is an ambitious thriller with a sharp social commentary – but let’s be honest, you just want to watch Harry Styles get freaky with Florence Pugh, aren’t you?
