A wonderful 'mini-commentary' on "The Stepford Wives {T.S.W.} (1975)." I really enjoyed watching this program as the stars, director, and producer look back upon fond (and in one case 'not so fond') memories on the making of "T.S.W." It was such a breath of fresh air watching as these professionals looked back on the fun times they had making this movie. It also had many cute moments such as, when Ms. Newman (Carol Van Sant) repeated those famous 9 words "I'll just die if I don't get this recipe." Believe it or not, it still comes across with a 'haunting' touch of nostalgia just as it did when the movie was first released. It is a shame that the movie was not a bigger success in 1975, God knows it should have been. Had more people viewed this movie, it would be an even bigger 70's classic more along the lines of "The Towering Inferno" in regards to numbers. This is a WONDERFUL piece of art and even though ever so slightly dated, still makes for GREAT entertainment. The only reason, I don't give this feature a '10' is simply because it would have been even more wonderful had it been just a little bit longer, and explored more technical insight on the material, ideas, changes and reasons for the changes that were made. Lastly, the actresses have really aged well, and look absolutely divine. Or should I say 'just like a stepford wife.' {laughs}
