Then, in this month’s installment of The Bigger Picture, we examine Olivia Wilde’s new film Don’t Worry Darling, the off-screen drama surrounding it, and why we seem to care about the details of celebrities’ lives so much.

And we learn about the Houston Museum of Natural Science’s new HoloTheater, a multimedia holographic cinema experience.
