The Stepford Wives


On this date (January 12) in 1915 the United States House of Representatives rejected a proposal to give women the right to vote.

The Stepford Wives (1975) was directed by Bryon Forbes and based on the novel by Ira Levin (whose other novels made into movies include Rosemary's Baby and The Boys from Brazil).

Joanna Eberhart has come to the quaint little town of Stepford, Connecticut with her family, but soon discovers there lies a sinister truth in the all too perfect behavior of the female residents.

Here's the trailer:
