getting two divs to display side-by-side

How do I get the two images contained within the two divs to display side-by-side? I've tried changing the variables within container as display: inline-block; and float: left; as suggested by some other threads, but those did not work the way I tried them.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
.container {
  position: relative;
  width: 50%;
}

.image {
  display: block;
  width: 100%;
  height: auto;
}

.overlay {
  position: absolute;
  bottom: 0;
  left: 0;
  right: 0;
  background-color: #008CBA;
  overflow: hidden;
  width: 100%;
  height: 0;
  transition: .5s ease;
}

.container:hover .overlay {
  height: 100%;
}

.text {
  white-space: nowrap; 
  color: white;
  font-size: 20px;
  position: absolute;
  overflow: hidden;
  top: 50%;
  left: 50%;
  transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
  -ms-transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<h2>Slide in Overlay from the Bottom</h2>
<p>Hover over the image to see the effect.</p>

<div class="container">
  <img src="img_avatar.png" alt="Avatar" class="image">
  <div class="overlay">
    <div class="text">Hello World</div>
  </div>
</div>

<div class="container">
  <img src="img_avatar.png" alt="Avatar" class="image">
  <div class="overlay">
    <div class="text">Hello World</div>
  </div>
</div>

</body>
</html>

How it looks:

I want these to be displayed side-by-side, not on top of one-another.

If you wrap the two containers in a div set to display: flex you'll be fine. 

<div class="wrapper">
  <div class="container">
    <!-- your content -->
  </div>
  <div class="container">
    <!-- your content -->
  </div>
</div>

.wrapper {
  display: flex;
}

I hope it helps :)
