favorite movie #4: the stepford wives


Favorite movies that have had an impact on me - #4 - The Stepford Wives (1975): This great movie hits so many notes - psychological thriller, science fiction, social and political commentary, drama, comedy - and it is, sadly, prescient. What society wants women to be ... in the movie it comes from an evil "men's society," but today it is more insidious and widespread. It comes from without and within. Katherine Ross, Paula Prentiss, James Coburn, etc. are all excellent. The original novel by Ira Levin is worth a read, too.
