Theodore Shapiro and Paul Feig: A Familiar Team
The film is helmed by Paul Feig, who’s teamed up with music supervisor Theodore Shapiro more than once. Shapiro’s been behind the music for a string of well-known projects, including Severance, Wolfs, and Spies in Disguise. His partnership with Feig kicked off in 2015 with Spy, followed by Ghostbusters in 2016, and A Simple Favour in 2018. This latest project marks their fourth collaboration.
Shapiro’s score is crafted to ramp up the film’s “domestic noir” vibe and keep the tension simmering. The soundtrack’s mix of pop hits and original pieces helps set the mood, shifting from glitzy high society to something much darker beneath the surface.
Plot: Secrets and Suspense in High Society
The story centres on Millie, played by Sweeney, a young woman doing it tough who lands a job as a housemaid for a wealthy couple, portrayed by Seyfried and Sklenar. Things quickly go pear-shaped as Millie finds herself caught up in a mess of secrets lurking behind the polished facade of the upper crust.
The music, especially Shapiro’s contributions, mirrors this descent from glamour to psychological unease. Early reviews have been positive, and there’s a fair bit of buzz that this could be the film to turn Sweeney’s fortunes around.
