The Wonder Florence Pugh Finds Antidote To Don T Worry Darling Nonsense

The opening shot of Sebastián Lelio’s (Disobedience, Gloria Bell) period drama at first resembles Nathan Fielder’s intensely awkward, unflinchingly meta HBO series, The Rehearsal: a warehouse containing a movie set. Though The Wonder is meant to be focused on the 1862 Irish home of the O’Donnell family, within which a supposed miracle will be interrogated, the audience is introduced to the house from the back. The first thing we witness is the modern scaffolding propping it up, the fabrications outside of what we must come to believe is an attic room in which a devout young girl will slowly waste away....

The show’s formula was simple enough, its delivery mysterious enough, and its cast strong enough to transform a once sleepy cult drama into a nerdy spiritual experience that captivated people all over the planet....
