The Stepford Wives
- Commentary: Roger Ebert did not like this movie (his review is linked to the title of this post). That delights me, because I love this movie! Roger Ebert didn't like this movie because he was a man. Men almost never get it. It doesn't occur to them that this movie isn't about Joanna Eberhart or Bobbie Markowe. It's about the men in the movie, all of them. And, not only was it about 1975 men, it's about men, now. Unfortunately. But, undeniably.
I have more to say, but I think I'll wait until I view this movie once again.
