No Hard Feelings Team Responds to Controversy Over Film Premise
“You’re aware that you’re making something that’s so offensive and so wrong,” she said. “And you have it in your mind like, ‘God, I haven’t seen a movie like this in a long time,’ but more, ‘Oh, no. Is this going to be OK?'”
And she’s not the only cast members speaking out about the project. Laura Benanti, who plays Percy’s mom Allison, said No Hard Feelings satirizes helicopter parents, the term for people who intensely oversee their children’s lives.
“It’s a cautionary tale,” she told THR. “If you are a helicopter parent who puts your child in such a bubble, they do not know how to exist outside of that bubble, you are going to make the exact opposite and insane choice, which is what they are doing here. I feel like it is a very satirical look at what can happen if you do not give your children a longer leash to figure things out for themselves. Otherwise, you’re going to end up curating their life forever.”
