The Stepford Wives

http://progressive.stream.aol.com/ao..._trlr03_dl.mov

I remember checking out the original '70's version, which was more or less a satire focusing on women's lib during that time, but I don't know how this remake would play out for today's audience.

Re: The Stepford Wives

i thought the first one was interesting. although slightly disturbing to me, it provoked thought, which was of course the point. anyway, i cant watch the stream right now for some reason -- it doesnt seem to want to pull up. ill get back to this.

Re: The Stepford Wives

One of Trump's executives said Amy reminded him of a "Stepford Wife" tonight on the show.

Re: Stepford asian husband?

I think the movie is about the American dream which usually involves white anglo saxon families with perfect lives. Notice how perfect and blonde how all the ideal wives are (atleast from what I've seen in the previews).

Re: The Stepford Wives

if his wife is shown, my eyes weren't fast enough to see. there are only three stepford husbands that matter -- the rest have one-liners and are mostly shown in the men's club.

Whose CS Lee's wife in the film?

Emily Wing?

I'm guessing by the name, but here's a photo of her
