00:01:06 |
- Here's Mommy. |
00:01:08 |
Here we go, far away. |
00:01:12 |
Oh, my. Gonna miss you. |
00:01:17 |
There you are. |
00:01:19 |
- Thank you. |
00:01:21 |
- Take care, Mrs Eberhart. Be happy. |
00:01:25 |
Come back and see us. |
00:01:27 |
Bye, kids. See you. |
00:01:45 |
Hey. |
00:02:12 |
Let me take that. |
00:02:15 |
Right. |
00:02:19 |
Take care of him, will you? |
00:02:24 |
Now, hang on to him tight |
00:02:27 |
There you are, Mr Eberhart. |
00:02:30 |
- Thanks a lot, have a good trip. |
00:02:33 |
- Bye. |
00:02:35 |
Terrific job you did up there. |
00:02:37 |
I'm sorry, |
00:02:40 |
- Yeah. |
00:02:42 |
I just saw a man carrying |
00:02:46 |
Well, that's why we're moving |
00:05:35 |
- Come on, Fred. |
00:05:37 |
Come on, Fred. |
00:05:39 |
You don't even have to lock |
00:05:42 |
- That's really something, isn't it? |
00:06:08 |
Mr Eberhart, what's the story |
00:06:11 |
Upstairs, in the main bedroom. |
00:06:13 |
- Upstairs? |
00:06:14 |
- Terrific. |
00:06:17 |
This guy's gonna kill us today. |
00:06:21 |
Coffee? |
00:06:22 |
We're not allowed to drink anything |
00:06:36 |
Come on, Freddie, you want |
00:06:45 |
Hi. |
00:06:47 |
I'm Carol Van Sant. |
00:06:51 |
I just thought this might come |
00:06:55 |
That's really very nice of you. |
00:07:00 |
I'm Walter Eberhart. |
00:07:04 |
My wife's just inside. |
00:07:07 |
Oh, no, I know |
00:07:10 |
Look, if there's anything else you need, |
00:07:13 |
I just live over there. |
00:07:15 |
Oh, and tell your wife, you keep |
00:07:21 |
- Bye now. |
00:08:31 |
She cooks as good as she looks, Ted. |
00:08:49 |
What do you suppose |
00:08:51 |
Friendly. That was |
00:08:55 |
- Why did we move? |
00:08:58 |
I mean, it's best for the kids. |
00:09:00 |
And, well, it's best for you. You know, |
00:09:05 |
You can make yourself a darkroom. |
00:09:08 |
You know, I got a terrific deal |
00:09:10 |
And because it's safe, and because |
00:09:17 |
Those are all terrific reasons. |
00:09:20 |
You ever make it |
00:09:25 |
- Not with you. |
00:09:29 |
It's part of the deal. |
00:09:51 |
You go sit in those empty seats. |
00:11:06 |
Now, I also do the notes |
00:11:09 |
for The Weekly Chronicle. |
00:11:13 |
You've got the copy |
00:11:15 |
Yes, thank you. |
00:11:17 |
Then you know my style. |
00:11:20 |
So you just go right ahead |
00:11:25 |
Well, there's nothing much |
00:11:28 |
- What does your husband do? |
00:11:31 |
- Lawyer. |
00:11:34 |
I'm a sort of hopeful, would-be, |
00:11:39 |
What do you think you'll miss |
00:11:49 |
Noise. |
00:13:28 |
Well, I don't know who the guy was, |
00:13:33 |
- Well, what time was it? |
00:13:37 |
Well, they sure start early |
00:13:40 |
You mean the guy just |
00:13:43 |
and he put his hands |
00:13:46 |
How did he do it exactly? |
00:13:49 |
Walter. |
00:13:51 |
- You're getting me all soapy. |
00:13:55 |
- It's my legal mind. |
00:13:56 |
Stepford has really done |
00:13:58 |
I'd like to christen |
00:14:00 |
before I pay off the mortgage. |
00:14:02 |
- Just finish the dishes first. |
00:14:04 |
- Tell me about your day. |
00:14:08 |
any soft-core porno like you, |
00:14:13 |
But, oh, I did meet some |
00:14:17 |
- You want coffee? |
00:14:19 |
- Oh, I haven't gone shopping yet. |
00:14:23 |
They seem like |
00:14:25 |
I mean, they have |
00:14:30 |
They were telling me |
00:14:32 |
Apparently, it's the thing to join. |
00:14:34 |
It's quite an honour |
00:14:36 |
Why is it an honour? |
00:14:38 |
Why is it an honour? |
00:14:40 |
Well, because practically every |
00:14:43 |
commuters and townies. |
00:14:46 |
the TV executives, the shrinks, |
00:14:50 |
the fire chief, the head of the hospital, |
00:14:53 |
So did they ask you? |
00:14:55 |
- Did they ask me? |
00:14:58 |
You keep repeating the questions. |
00:15:01 |
Well, in a way, yes. |
00:15:03 |
In a way you could refuse, |
00:15:07 |
Well, they said I had a good chance |
00:15:11 |
I have to admit, though, that there's |
00:15:17 |
but apparently, it's gonna be changed |
00:15:23 |
Well, what rule is that? |
00:15:26 |
Well, right now |
00:15:31 |
I give up on you. |
00:15:33 |
Well, what's that supposed to mean? |
00:15:36 |
Why don't you ever once |
00:15:39 |
You pretend we decide things together, |
00:15:42 |
You asked me if I wanted |
00:15:44 |
and I found you'd already been |
00:15:47 |
You asked me if I liked this place, |
00:15:48 |
and I found you'd already made |
00:15:51 |
Now you're asking me about |
00:15:53 |
and it's quite obvious |
00:15:57 |
Why bother to ask me at all? |
00:16:00 |
I'm gonna put the kids to bed. |
00:16:17 |
Come on, Daddy's waiting. |
00:16:20 |
Ladies, we have specials today |
00:16:24 |
English walnuts and avocados. |
00:16:28 |
- How much is it? |
00:16:30 |
Walter, wait, wait. |
00:16:32 |
Yeah, I just made it out. Why? |
00:16:36 |
- Oh, my God. |
00:16:38 |
- You can ring it separately. |
00:16:54 |
OK, Mrs. Sunderson. |
00:16:57 |
Hold it a second, Mrs. Sunderson. |
00:17:05 |
OK, come on. |
00:17:11 |
Hey, what was that? |
00:17:12 |
- Oh, shit. |
00:17:15 |
I didn't see you. |
00:17:19 |
Oh, my God. |
00:17:22 |
Oh, no, it's nothing, really. |
00:17:25 |
- I'm fine. It's just my head. I... |
00:17:30 |
I... I didn't mean nothing. It was just |
00:17:32 |
No, I'm fine. |
00:17:34 |
It wasn't my fault. You know, |
00:17:38 |
It came right... |
00:17:41 |
It wasn't my fault. |
00:17:53 |
- How do you feel, Carol? |
00:17:56 |
Isn't that Carol Van Sant? |
00:18:00 |
Well, I think that she had |
00:18:03 |
Should anyone send |
00:18:08 |
Get an ambulance |
00:18:09 |
We have an accident. |
00:18:13 |
Get it down here right away. |
00:18:17 |
What are you talking about? |
00:18:21 |
Get it down here right away. |
00:18:24 |
This is all so silly. I... |
00:18:28 |
What can I do, Carol? Tell me. |
00:18:30 |
- Oh, my groceries. |
00:18:33 |
- Could you call Larson's Garage? |
00:18:37 |
This is all so silly. It's just my head. |
00:18:44 |
It... It's just my head. |
00:18:46 |
Poor, Carol. |
00:18:59 |
Do you think you'd get ambulance |
00:19:02 |
Two hours you'd wait in New York. |
00:19:04 |
And I bet even in Scarsdale, |
00:19:09 |
Any of the rest of you |
00:19:11 |
make sure you do it |
00:19:13 |
- OK, pull it on out. |
00:19:16 |
Well, I guess that's |
00:19:18 |
- You know... |
00:19:20 |
We may be new here, |
00:19:24 |
Oh, no, no, no, you're wrong. It... |
00:19:28 |
No, no... |
00:19:29 |
You're not wrong. The ambulance |
00:19:55 |
Mommy. |
00:20:00 |
Mommy. |
00:20:03 |
What is it? |
00:20:10 |
What is it, sweetie? |
00:20:13 |
I think Teddy's gonna cry all night. |
00:20:17 |
Oh, no, look. |
00:20:21 |
- He's happy. Lookit. |
00:20:25 |
He doesn't like it here. |
00:20:30 |
- What do you think has upset him? |
00:20:35 |
Oh, yes, he does. |
00:20:39 |
He told me he loves it here. |
00:20:42 |
He loves the quiet. |
00:20:47 |
He's thinking about all the honey |
00:20:53 |
He told me he liked it even better |
00:20:56 |
because he can take walks |
00:20:59 |
and he doesn't have to worry |
00:21:04 |
He's really a Stepford bear. |
00:21:07 |
He really knows his way around. |
00:22:08 |
Walter? |
00:22:10 |
You all right? |
00:22:13 |
Yeah. |
00:22:16 |
It's awfully late. |
00:22:26 |
Everything go OK at the initiation? |
00:22:32 |
It wasn't an initiation. |
00:22:38 |
They just showed me |
00:22:40 |
and they asked me if I wanted to join. |
00:22:43 |
Good. |
00:22:47 |
I wake up, |
00:22:49 |
You're sitting here alone, drinking. |
00:22:54 |
Why didn't you come to bed? |
00:22:58 |
I'm coming to bed. |
00:23:01 |
Did anybody say something |
00:23:03 |
I'm not upset. |
00:23:06 |
There's nothing to be upset about. |
00:23:08 |
- Everything's fine. |
00:23:11 |
I was worried. Walter, I love you, |
00:23:24 |
I love you. |
00:23:27 |
I really love you. |
00:23:29 |
Do you...? Do you know that? |
00:23:32 |
I really do. And I know |
00:23:37 |
- You didn't wanna move here. |
00:23:39 |
- I know that, no. |
00:23:41 |
I've already gotten over it. |
00:23:43 |
Do you understand that |
00:23:45 |
Yeah. Yes. |
00:23:53 |
Let's go to bed. |
00:24:02 |
I feel like I'm getting old. |
00:24:05 |
You're not getting old. |
00:24:10 |
I feel like it. |
00:24:16 |
Hi. |
00:24:20 |
- Are you Joanna Eberhart? |
00:24:23 |
The Joanna Eberhart? |
00:24:26 |
Avid shutterbug, ex-Gothamite who |
00:24:32 |
Yes. |
00:24:35 |
Hey, boy, am I glad to see you. |
00:24:39 |
Hi, I'm Bobby. Bobby Markowe. |
00:24:43 |
That's upward mobility for Markowitz. |
00:24:45 |
I'm also an ex-Gothamite, who's been |
00:24:48 |
for just over a month now, |
00:24:51 |
You see, doctor, my problem is that, |
00:24:55 |
I don't wanna squeeze |
00:24:58 |
Anyway, I saw your name here. |
00:25:00 |
- I hope you don't think... |
00:25:02 |
Yeah, it was fantastic, fantastic. |
00:25:04 |
Here you are. Wait a minute, I think |
00:25:07 |
- No. |
00:25:10 |
Here she is. |
00:25:13 |
- I wish they'd use one of my... |
00:25:15 |
I knew you were fantastic, |
00:25:17 |
Have I seen any of your pictures |
00:25:19 |
- I doubt it. |
00:25:21 |
I know you are. Eber... I don't know, |
00:25:25 |
- Anyway. |
00:25:27 |
Me too. How do you do? |
00:25:29 |
Listen, you wanna go |
00:25:31 |
- Eat. |
00:25:32 |
- Yeah. |
00:25:34 |
- I got all this junk here. |
00:25:39 |
I dropped my best camera on my foot. |
00:25:41 |
Have you really got film |
00:25:43 |
Oh, yes. |
00:25:46 |
Yeah, listen, I really... |
00:25:49 |
ordinarily, I don't pay |
00:25:52 |
- because it's full of it, you know. |
00:25:53 |
I saw your name, |
00:25:56 |
Whatever made you |
00:25:58 |
- Oh, I didn't. Walter did. |
00:26:01 |
Dave brought us here |
00:26:03 |
He's best in bed |
00:26:06 |
I think I'll break into |
00:26:08 |
Hey, hey, hey, you know something, |
00:26:13 |
Yeah. |
00:26:16 |
A messy kitchen. It's beautiful. |
00:26:21 |
Oh, my, of course, |
00:26:25 |
You haven't got |
00:26:27 |
peanut-butter handprints |
00:26:29 |
But then, you're new here, |
00:26:32 |
Hello, Hi-C. |
00:26:34 |
Hey, you want a Ring Ding? |
00:26:38 |
- What year is it? |
00:26:42 |
- It'd be great with Scotch. |
00:26:44 |
Two things I always carry: |
00:26:47 |
And I don't even wanna |
00:26:50 |
I'll tell you. Thanks. |
00:26:53 |
I can't figure out this burg. |
00:26:55 |
It's like maids have been |
00:26:57 |
and the housewife |
00:26:59 |
gets Robert Redford for Christmas. |
00:27:01 |
And believe me, |
00:27:02 |
but nobody will tell what |
00:27:05 |
- Cheers. |
00:27:08 |
Not to mention that |
00:27:11 |
- Yours too? |
00:27:14 |
Dave wouldn't miss. |
00:27:15 |
- What do you think they do up there? |
00:27:18 |
and reminisce about |
00:27:20 |
What good old days? |
00:27:22 |
Like those good old days when |
00:27:26 |
Ring Dings and Scotch, |
00:27:29 |
- We may have started something. |
00:27:32 |
Totally disgusting. |
00:27:34 |
- Don't you like it? |
00:27:38 |
You're very honest. That's what |
00:27:53 |
Hey, it's me. |
00:27:56 |
And I'm here, and I'm on |
00:28:00 |
Yeah, New Projects. |
00:28:03 |
Well, how would you feel about some |
00:28:07 |
- Well, like now, tonight. |
00:28:11 |
Yeah, that'd be great. I actually get |
00:28:17 |
- Give me a few minutes, huh? |
00:28:21 |
All right. Bye-bye. |
00:28:24 |
- She'd love it. |
00:28:28 |
You're not altogether sure about |
00:28:34 |
No, no, that's not true. |
00:28:37 |
I think I am. It's... |
00:28:41 |
It's a big change. |
00:28:44 |
A change for the better, Walter. |
00:29:02 |
See, I intend to really fix |
00:29:06 |
I thought I'd... |
00:29:08 |
...make it into sort of |
00:29:13 |
Maybe I'll put the pool table |
00:29:16 |
I thought I'd go to town, you know, |
00:29:19 |
It'd be great for the kids. |
00:29:22 |
Well, who's talking about the kids? |
00:29:25 |
They ain't gonna be allowed in. |
00:29:46 |
I like to watch women |
00:29:51 |
You came to the right town. |
00:29:56 |
Who was the one wanted tea? |
00:29:59 |
Claude. |
00:30:02 |
Claude Axhelm. |
00:30:06 |
- He's the one who... |
00:30:09 |
I'm not good on names. |
00:30:13 |
Why do they call you "Dis"? |
00:30:14 |
Because I used to work |
00:30:16 |
- No, really. |
00:30:21 |
No. |
00:30:24 |
- Why not? |
00:30:26 |
who enjoys making |
00:30:36 |
It was on the market |
00:30:38 |
No kidding. Six months. |
00:30:40 |
- Excuse me, your tea. |
00:30:44 |
Oh, you know, I'm really |
00:30:50 |
Perhaps we might talk |
00:30:52 |
Oh, yes, certainly, absolutely. |
00:30:59 |
I hope your wife |
00:31:02 |
It was your wife, wasn't it? |
00:31:05 |
Oh, yeah, yes. It was nothing. |
00:31:10 |
I should go and see her. |
00:31:13 |
She'd like that. |
00:31:15 |
- Shall we make a start? |
00:31:19 |
Definitely. I'm sure she's got |
00:31:22 |
Well, |
00:31:24 |
you want me to get you |
00:31:27 |
No, it's OK. |
00:31:29 |
My drink. |
00:31:32 |
Excuse me. |
00:31:35 |
Well, we all know what we're here for, |
00:31:39 |
Well, how about the Christmas toys |
00:31:45 |
For chrissake, Claude, |
00:31:47 |
Yeah, well, I guess it's a little early |
00:31:52 |
I'm frankly more interested |
00:31:55 |
like my son hated camp. |
00:31:57 |
Charmaine won't hear |
00:31:59 |
What's he gonna do all summer |
00:32:03 |
I thought we might try |
00:32:06 |
Oh, sure, put a tag on all of his toys, |
00:32:10 |
That's a good idea. |
00:32:13 |
I mean, everybody's got something |
00:32:17 |
- and we can help sell it. |
00:32:19 |
- Barn dance? |
00:32:21 |
- Well, that went out in the '40s. |
00:32:22 |
I think a barn dance would be |
00:32:27 |
You're talking about a square dance, |
00:32:29 |
Is that what you mean, |
00:32:37 |
Hey, hey, wait. Anybody |
00:32:42 |
- A cakewalk? |
00:32:44 |
- It's a dance. |
00:32:47 |
Cakewalk is not a dance. |
00:32:49 |
It's a thing where all the women bring |
00:32:55 |
on the floor. And you've got numbers, |
00:32:58 |
Now, look, could we just get back |
00:33:01 |
Now, I brought up the possibility |
00:33:04 |
Do you think we can |
00:33:05 |
I thought we talked about it. |
00:33:07 |
Well, nobody said whether they |
00:33:09 |
Well, he said something |
00:33:11 |
Do you wanna do a barn dance |
00:33:13 |
We even suggested the possibility |
00:33:15 |
and the tag sale together |
00:33:17 |
Ted, Ted, wait a minute, wait. |
00:33:19 |
You have a better idea about the town. |
00:33:23 |
I would go for the sale because I think |
00:33:28 |
- and you could do that. |
00:33:31 |
And I have to tell you |
00:33:32 |
that we've always run the club |
00:33:35 |
- Claude. |
00:33:37 |
- You are full of crap. |
00:33:41 |
- Claude. |
00:33:43 |
that I'm kind of disgusted about the |
00:33:46 |
- at this meeting. |
00:33:49 |
We're just trying |
00:33:51 |
I think you ought to appoint me |
00:33:54 |
If you'd run the whole thing, you're |
00:33:57 |
If I can't do it, |
00:33:59 |
Excuse me. Let me see if I kind |
00:34:03 |
You really are more interested |
00:34:07 |
a lot of little ones? Is that fair to say? |
00:34:10 |
I mean, a tag sale and all that |
00:34:14 |
You want something big because we |
00:34:20 |
Well, you know, I think this has been |
00:34:23 |
I think we got enough things that we |
00:34:26 |
- Walter. |
00:34:28 |
- What? |
00:34:30 |
- Excuse me. |
00:34:31 |
After... |
00:34:51 |
- Are you still driving that big Lincoln? |
00:34:55 |
You should have traded it in years ago. |
00:34:57 |
Well, if you drive the way you talk, |
00:34:58 |
you're gonna have a lot of accidents, |
00:35:03 |
Any...? Anybody else want a nightcap? |
00:35:05 |
Yeah, get me a decent brandy, will |
00:35:08 |
Yes. |
00:35:12 |
In case you're wondering |
00:35:16 |
- You're not the lke Mazzard are you? |
00:35:18 |
Oh, no. Walter, tell him. |
00:35:22 |
You'll have to forgive me. |
00:35:23 |
I used to gawk at all those girls |
00:35:26 |
You blighted my adolescence, |
00:35:28 |
I thought I blighted your adolescence. |
00:35:31 |
I can't get over this. |
00:35:33 |
- Is this for me? |
00:35:35 |
Keep it? I'll insure it. |
00:35:39 |
My pleasure. |
00:35:41 |
- Here you are, lke. |
00:35:43 |
See what you missed. |
00:35:44 |
Oh. Oh, yeah, it's... |
00:35:48 |
It's... It's very good |
00:35:57 |
You've been a long time. |
00:36:00 |
I'm just clearing up some things. |
00:36:03 |
I just can't stand to come down in the |
00:36:08 |
What do you think? |
00:36:12 |
You serious? |
00:36:14 |
You have to be kidding. |
00:36:16 |
the time of day back in Manhattan. |
00:36:25 |
I mean, OK. |
00:36:27 |
I was pleased to get this, |
00:36:31 |
- Well, I don't happen to agree. |
00:36:35 |
My God, they're worse |
00:36:38 |
New Projects committee. They ought |
00:36:42 |
- Well, that's your opinion. |
00:36:45 |
Who else sat there? |
00:36:48 |
They were dummies. |
00:36:50 |
I mean, take el presidente, |
00:36:54 |
Well, he just happens to be a Ph.D. |
00:36:56 |
He runs a multimillion-dollar |
00:36:58 |
What do they make, sleeping pills? |
00:37:01 |
and what you're saying isn't you. |
00:37:04 |
- You're putting me on. |
00:37:07 |
No. I... |
00:37:12 |
Look, this... This is Stepford. |
00:37:16 |
These are the people we have to |
00:37:46 |
- Yeah, they really are. |
00:37:48 |
- You gonna be around later? |
00:37:50 |
OK. Bye-bye. |
00:37:52 |
- Got a drink there? |
00:37:54 |
Yeah? Sure? |
00:37:57 |
Yeah. Hey, listen, Marie. You want |
00:37:59 |
- Oh, yes. I'd love that, Dale. |
00:38:01 |
- Thank you very much. |
00:38:03 |
- I haven't forgotten your... |
00:38:05 |
Where is your wife? |
00:38:06 |
- Hi, Walter. |
00:38:08 |
I'm fine. How are you? |
00:38:10 |
- Yeah. |
00:38:12 |
Ed is having a hell of a time down |
00:38:14 |
- Give him a hand, will you? |
00:38:15 |
and give him a hand. |
00:38:21 |
Get some drinks down to the pool |
00:38:39 |
Over there, there's some kids |
00:38:51 |
Can you believe all this? |
00:38:54 |
For a bachelor, old Dis |
00:38:58 |
What do you say we go home |
00:39:00 |
Like put on a fancy dress? |
00:39:01 |
Absolutely not. |
00:39:03 |
- Hello. |
00:39:05 |
- How are you? |
00:39:07 |
- Lovely party. |
00:39:15 |
Did you get a look at the food? |
00:39:17 |
How about photographing it |
00:39:20 |
Like Walter says, it's all so dazzling. |
00:39:24 |
I mean, I like it. It's perfect. |
00:39:28 |
I just don't like it. |
00:39:31 |
- Well, hi, you two. |
00:39:33 |
You want to come |
00:39:35 |
Why not? We're not proud. |
00:39:37 |
Oh, you haven't got a drink. |
00:39:39 |
I must get you a drink. |
00:39:45 |
Good shot. |
00:39:47 |
- All right, who's first here? |
00:39:50 |
- Don't use the tongs. |
00:39:53 |
- This is the Wimpiris way. |
00:39:55 |
That's a medium. This is a rare. |
00:39:58 |
Rare. |
00:39:59 |
I'll just die if I don't get this recipe. |
00:40:03 |
Want another well...? |
00:40:07 |
Well, I told you to move them over. |
00:40:10 |
Move them over toward the centre. |
00:40:18 |
I'll just die if I don't get this recipe. |
00:40:46 |
I'll just die if I don't get this recipe. |
00:41:02 |
- Walter? |
00:41:03 |
- Take over, will you? |
00:41:10 |
How many of these have you had? |
00:41:13 |
Don't you know |
00:41:16 |
Don't you remember |
00:41:19 |
I'll just die if I don't get this recipe. |
00:41:21 |
Why the hell do you do this |
00:41:26 |
Come on. |
00:41:35 |
Well, it was this problem I had, |
00:41:38 |
I couldn't handle it. |
00:41:43 |
I guess that's one of the reasons |
00:41:47 |
The drinking was getting so bad, |
00:41:50 |
and he blamed the city |
00:41:53 |
And, oh, I knew I shouldn't have |
00:41:56 |
But I did, and I'm sorry I ruined it all. |
00:41:59 |
- You don't have to apologize, Carol. |
00:42:02 |
We just felt that it was important |
00:42:06 |
you being the newest in Stepford. |
00:42:07 |
We didn't want you |
00:42:10 |
"We"? Who is "we"? |
00:42:13 |
Oh, well, Ted, naturally. |
00:42:16 |
And lke was there, and... |
00:42:18 |
Oh, he's so old and smart that, after I'd |
00:42:23 |
You mean the men made you come |
00:42:26 |
Oh, no. |
00:42:30 |
All they did was |
00:42:33 |
- Well, why don't you come in. |
00:42:36 |
No, I've got to get back. I... |
00:42:39 |
I've seen Charmaine and... |
00:42:42 |
Well, I... |
00:42:44 |
I ought to get back. |
00:42:56 |
Incredible. |
00:42:57 |
Absolutely unbelievable. |
00:43:01 |
If I was forced to apologize |
00:43:05 |
I'd spend my whole life |
00:43:07 |
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." |
00:43:12 |
That is a lady |
00:43:15 |
I told you I... |
00:43:17 |
...messed a little bit |
00:43:20 |
Didn't we all? |
00:43:22 |
I'm not contemplating |
00:43:26 |
but they could certainly use |
00:43:30 |
- Oh, yeah. |
00:43:36 |
I'm game. |
00:43:39 |
Boy, am I game! |
00:43:42 |
Wow! |
00:43:45 |
Gee, it sounds like fun. |
00:43:47 |
But I've got three kids, |
00:43:50 |
And that doesn't leave me |
00:43:53 |
We really understand, Marie. |
00:43:55 |
And we're not after you |
00:43:59 |
but doesn't it ever bother you |
00:44:02 |
in Stepford is sexually archaic? |
00:44:06 |
- Archaic? |
00:44:10 |
Does it ever bother me? |
00:44:14 |
I've never been |
00:44:17 |
I guess it's because I've just been |
00:44:21 |
This isn't any kind of a lifelong |
00:44:24 |
We just want to see |
00:44:26 |
for some kind of activities in Stepford. |
00:44:29 |
Well, there isn't any interest here, |
00:44:32 |
I know I shouldn't say this, |
00:44:39 |
I'm sorry. I just can't waste my |
00:44:44 |
But you do go out sometimes, |
00:44:47 |
Go out? |
00:44:48 |
Of course I go out. |
00:44:50 |
I'm out now, aren't I? |
00:44:53 |
Which one do you like? |
00:44:54 |
Oh, I don't think either one. |
00:44:59 |
- This is who? |
00:45:01 |
Husband owns the pharmacy. |
00:45:03 |
What I'd give for her chest. |
00:45:10 |
There's this thing they've invented. |
00:45:14 |
Doesn't interest me. |
00:45:28 |
God, I just love that. |
00:45:34 |
- Hey. |
00:45:40 |
Oh, yes. |
00:45:45 |
Nobody's ever touched me |
00:45:50 |
Oh, there. |
00:45:54 |
Oh, you're the best, Frank. |
00:45:57 |
Oh, God, are you the best. |
00:46:02 |
Oh, there. |
00:46:05 |
- Wait. |
00:46:10 |
- God, are you the best. |
00:46:13 |
You're the king, Frank. |
00:46:17 |
Oh, you're the champion, Frank. |
00:46:22 |
Oh, you're the master! |
00:46:28 |
- Is this the right place? |
00:46:30 |
- Last house on Snowflake Lane. |
00:46:33 |
- We don't want to strike out again. |
00:46:38 |
Wasn't that awful? All your fault too. |
00:46:40 |
I know, but this time, |
00:46:43 |
Listen, her name's |
00:46:45 |
And we were buying our kids shoes. |
00:46:48 |
"Come on over. |
00:46:50 |
The way we've been bombing out, |
00:46:53 |
- She said her court's in the back. |
00:47:04 |
Game. |
00:47:06 |
- Five-one. Let's change. |
00:47:09 |
God, this is fun. |
00:47:14 |
No! |
00:47:16 |
- Oh, that was great. |
00:47:19 |
- in such a long time. |
00:47:22 |
I can tell that. |
00:47:24 |
Really. Hey, didn't you think |
00:47:27 |
I thought you were terrific. |
00:47:30 |
Oh, well, listen. Play at my place |
00:47:35 |
Now, Jenny Fisher used to play. |
00:47:39 |
The only competition I've got left |
00:47:41 |
are two teenage boys |
00:47:43 |
- Send them to my place. |
00:47:45 |
I'd be lost without them. |
00:47:47 |
Why don't you get her that... |
00:47:49 |
- Give you some lessons. |
00:47:51 |
- Thank you. No. |
00:47:54 |
Thank you, Nettie. |
00:47:58 |
A German Virgo. |
00:48:01 |
Oh, that's why we won the war. |
00:48:06 |
Well, girls, I didn't get you here |
00:48:11 |
I'm interested. I'm no fanatic, |
00:48:15 |
Actually, we moved here |
00:48:18 |
and Ed joins |
00:48:21 |
Believe me, |
00:48:24 |
but, frankly, anything that gets him |
00:48:28 |
If we could get a consciousness-raising |
00:48:32 |
- What? |
00:48:36 |
- A bitching session, you mean. |
00:48:39 |
Like a shot, I'd come. |
00:48:41 |
You wouldn't believe |
00:48:46 |
He has a rubber suit |
00:00:05 |
What is a rubber suit? |
00:00:09 |
I'm an accent freak. |
00:00:12 |
I'm not sure why. |
00:00:15 |
I don't know if you've noticed |
00:00:19 |
- When you were young, you mean? |
00:00:21 |
I still do. |
00:00:26 |
Now, here. |
00:00:28 |
I want you to write down |
00:00:31 |
from when you were born until now. |
00:00:34 |
And this is just standard vocabulary. |
00:00:40 |
See, just straight through the alphabet. |
00:00:42 |
"A. Aback. Abandon." Like that. |
00:00:47 |
And this here's easy to operate. |
00:00:53 |
I think I can manage that, |
00:00:57 |
- but what's this for? |
00:01:00 |
- Don't touch. |
00:01:03 |
I aim to feed them all |
00:01:08 |
What I'll get back is an instant |
00:01:12 |
I really think it'll be more important |
00:01:16 |
That's very interesting, Claude, |
00:01:22 |
We Stepford wives are busy, busy, |
00:01:26 |
- Is he going to take your fingerprints? |
00:01:29 |
Just like your wife. |
00:01:31 |
Bobby and I tried to involve her |
00:01:34 |
but she had too much ironing. |
00:01:37 |
Maybe you could convince her. |
00:01:40 |
Kit Sunderson too. |
00:01:44 |
I could find it for you. |
00:01:45 |
Isn't this kind of blackmail, Joanna? |
00:01:52 |
It's what made this country great, |
00:02:00 |
Usually we start out bitching, |
00:02:03 |
but maybe if we're lucky, we can get |
00:02:08 |
Anybody have any questions? |
00:02:16 |
Well, good. |
00:02:18 |
Then we might as well get started. |
00:02:22 |
Fine. Terrific. |
00:02:24 |
Who wants to go first? |
00:02:29 |
Talk about anything. |
00:02:32 |
Sex, money, our marriages, |
00:02:40 |
Well, how about if I start? |
00:02:43 |
Right, yes, well... |
00:02:48 |
I think there are times when |
00:02:52 |
than he does about me, |
00:02:54 |
and that can hurt. |
00:02:56 |
I don't think that... |
00:02:58 |
I don't think that Ed ever loved me. |
00:03:02 |
I mean, |
00:03:04 |
he married me |
00:03:07 |
It made a big impression |
00:03:10 |
to look like I look. |
00:03:16 |
God knows he's given me things. |
00:03:20 |
I'm not complaining |
00:03:25 |
He never loved me. |
00:03:29 |
I didn't bake anything yesterday. |
00:03:32 |
Took me so long to get |
00:03:35 |
I didn't have any time to bake. |
00:03:37 |
Well, you don't have to bake, Kit. |
00:03:40 |
Hell, Ed's lucky if I remember |
00:03:44 |
Easy On spray starch. |
00:03:46 |
It must save me |
00:03:49 |
You'll never run short of time again. |
00:03:53 |
I've just been tempted so many times |
00:03:57 |
I'm not trying to be |
00:03:59 |
but we're not supposed to delve |
00:04:02 |
Easy On's really that good, is it? |
00:04:05 |
Is it that good? Well, if time is your |
00:04:10 |
That's all I can tell you. |
00:04:12 |
It's so good |
00:04:16 |
and the Easy On people asked |
00:04:18 |
not only would I do it, |
00:04:23 |
That's how good it is. |
00:04:25 |
Holy cow. |
00:04:47 |
I think I'll take Fred for a walk. |
00:04:50 |
Fred? |
00:04:52 |
- Where is he? Did he get out again? |
00:04:55 |
I said I was going to take him |
00:05:00 |
You going out? |
00:05:01 |
No, I'm gonna walk him |
00:05:04 |
You just keep doing |
00:05:07 |
I'm very fond of you. |
00:05:10 |
Well, I'm fond of you too. |
00:05:13 |
Fred! |
00:05:15 |
Freddie. Wanna go for a walk? |
00:06:18 |
Fine, Walter, just fine. |
00:06:36 |
Fred. |
00:06:40 |
Fred. |
00:06:42 |
Come on back here now. |
00:06:46 |
Fred! |
00:06:58 |
Fred. |
00:07:18 |
Fred. Come here. |
00:07:59 |
Sorry about that, lady. |
00:08:04 |
- Oh, it's Mrs Eberhart. |
00:08:09 |
Once again, Mrs Eberhart, |
00:08:11 |
But this is a pretty quiet town. |
00:08:14 |
Lot of very nice houses, like your own. |
00:08:17 |
People have valuable things. |
00:08:22 |
You see that old mansion |
00:08:24 |
- It's a landmark building. |
00:08:27 |
Some railroad tycoon built it in 1870. |
00:08:31 |
Before the Men's Association |
00:08:33 |
Now the Association's got |
00:08:36 |
to try and fix up what was ruined, |
00:08:40 |
We can't let people |
00:08:43 |
One of the reasons I moved |
00:08:45 |
was so I could walk around at night. |
00:08:47 |
Well, certainly, you and Fred |
00:08:51 |
But I'd stick a little closer to home. |
00:08:54 |
Really, Mrs Eberhart, this isn't the |
00:08:58 |
I see. |
00:09:00 |
- Thank you. Good night. |
00:09:43 |
Come on, Ed, let me drive. |
00:09:45 |
You're in no fit state, OK? |
00:09:57 |
All right? |
00:09:59 |
Thattaboy. |
00:10:06 |
Just lie back and relax. |
00:10:11 |
Feel OK? |
00:10:13 |
Good. |
00:10:15 |
All right. Here we go. |
00:10:31 |
Joanna. |
00:10:34 |
Joanna. Come over here. |
00:10:50 |
- Hi, dear. |
00:10:53 |
All right, ladies? |
00:10:55 |
- Oh, yes, thanks. |
00:10:58 |
Thanks so much. |
00:11:04 |
- I was trying to tell you. |
00:11:08 |
- That was Frank. |
00:11:10 |
The house. Remember? |
00:11:13 |
And that was Mrs Frank. |
00:11:15 |
- "God, there, Frank, yes." |
00:11:18 |
I remember. God. |
00:11:21 |
Now, how about that |
00:11:23 |
- Oh, God, yes. Wait a minute. |
00:11:27 |
We're going the wrong way. |
00:11:29 |
- Cleaners. |
00:11:31 |
- Hi. |
00:11:32 |
- Hi. |
00:11:34 |
Have you heard? |
00:11:36 |
A black family's moving into town. |
00:11:41 |
Think that's good? |
00:11:43 |
I think it's good. |
00:11:46 |
so much as I think it's natural, |
00:11:48 |
I mean, after all, |
00:11:53 |
- Stepford? |
00:11:55 |
Well, sure. |
00:11:56 |
We have the first Chinese restaurant |
00:11:59 |
Ah, yes. |
00:12:02 |
And we had the first women's club |
00:12:04 |
to ask any of those liberation ladies |
00:12:07 |
- There are no women's clubs here. |
00:12:10 |
I went to a meeting once. |
00:12:12 |
There must have been |
00:12:16 |
Well, where the hell are they? |
00:12:19 |
Some of them moved away, |
00:12:20 |
but I guess most of them |
00:12:22 |
I know I did. |
00:12:24 |
There we are. Off you go. |
00:12:27 |
We disbanded, oh, |
00:12:29 |
years ago. We weren't |
00:12:33 |
You mean useful |
00:12:36 |
I like to see my home looking nice. |
00:12:38 |
Look, we found this at the library. |
00:12:41 |
Listen, Carol, it says you were |
00:12:44 |
I only took the post |
00:12:48 |
Please explain to me what you're into. |
00:12:51 |
Is it enough? |
00:12:53 |
Well, enough for me maybe is |
00:12:57 |
Well, you see, Ted's doing really well |
00:13:03 |
and I give him a good home. |
00:13:05 |
I really think that helps. |
00:13:07 |
The kids are doing the best |
00:13:11 |
and I'm here all the time. I... |
00:13:14 |
Well, I know that helps too. |
00:13:17 |
I'm really off the booze, |
00:13:22 |
It's none of your business, |
00:13:26 |
Look, I'm sorry to disappoint you, |
00:13:33 |
I'm happy. |
00:13:37 |
You know, |
00:13:40 |
Don't say that. We're not. |
00:13:42 |
- You sure? |
00:13:47 |
OK. |
00:13:48 |
We are fine. |
00:14:45 |
- Hi. |
00:14:47 |
What? Oh, well, he hated them. |
00:14:52 |
I must say, I was inclined to agree. |
00:14:56 |
But still... |
00:14:59 |
Did the girls bring Fred over |
00:15:02 |
Not that I know of. |
00:15:04 |
Oh, shoot. |
00:15:08 |
Can I leave the kids here a bit |
00:15:10 |
Sure, I'll go with you. |
00:15:13 |
- Dave, will you take care of the kids? |
00:15:18 |
I'll be right back. |
00:15:19 |
All right, Mommy. |
00:15:21 |
We'll find him. Tell me more about |
00:15:28 |
Fred! Fred! |
00:15:38 |
- Did you see what I saw? |
00:15:42 |
No, back at Charmaine's. |
00:15:47 |
Oh, my God. |
00:16:26 |
You see, Ed hated tennis, |
00:16:30 |
All he wanted to do was to please me. |
00:16:34 |
Well, I want to please him now, |
00:16:41 |
You see, we spent this weekend |
00:16:45 |
Just Ed and me, you know, |
00:16:48 |
The Park Merrill with some friends, |
00:16:52 |
and we had the most terrific time. |
00:16:54 |
I can't get my mind operating. |
00:17:00 |
Besides, I'm just swamped with work. |
00:17:03 |
- Work? |
00:17:06 |
Yeah, it was... |
00:17:08 |
It was just the being alone with Ed |
00:17:12 |
All I ever thought about before |
00:17:16 |
Well, |
00:17:18 |
I'm here to tell you |
00:17:21 |
Ed's always hankered |
00:17:24 |
And now he's going to get it. |
00:17:51 |
Look, I've been doing |
00:17:54 |
And a lot of thinking. |
00:17:55 |
And I know what I'm gonna say |
00:17:58 |
but if you laugh at it, |
00:18:02 |
OK, you remember hearing about |
00:18:05 |
It was in TIME. I cut it out. |
00:18:08 |
Wait a second. Sit down. |
00:18:12 |
Issue dated October 4th, 1971. |
00:18:17 |
It's about why there are |
00:18:20 |
See, this scientist has this theory |
00:18:22 |
that there's something that |
00:18:25 |
It comes from deep wells, |
00:18:26 |
and it's got some chemical tranquilliser |
00:18:30 |
See? |
00:18:32 |
Dallas is over two times as big |
00:18:34 |
but that year, there were 242 murders |
00:18:38 |
And there were only 13 in El Paso. |
00:18:41 |
Joanna. Joanna, I think |
00:18:45 |
I think there's something in the water |
00:18:47 |
that turns us into hausfraus, drones, |
00:18:50 |
Charmaine's changed, |
00:18:52 |
and so have all those other |
00:18:55 |
Well, I... |
00:18:58 |
It can't all be coincidence. |
00:19:00 |
Look at all those places. |
00:19:02 |
Electronics, computers, |
00:19:06 |
And labs. Who knows what? |
00:19:10 |
They must all be dumping |
00:19:14 |
in the Stepford River, |
00:19:16 |
and it could be making |
00:19:19 |
Listen, the 6:00 news |
00:19:22 |
I don't see what's so far-out |
00:19:24 |
All right. Why don't we write |
00:19:28 |
and have them check |
00:19:31 |
Governmental agencies. |
00:19:34 |
And I mean, if they're way above |
00:19:37 |
they'll manage to lose a letter |
00:19:40 |
They teach courses in misfiling |
00:19:43 |
You know what I think |
00:19:45 |
I think we ought to take a sample |
00:19:48 |
and then get it |
00:19:51 |
Trouble is, |
00:19:53 |
...you know, guys at that |
00:19:57 |
I lost my virginity |
00:20:01 |
No kidding. |
00:20:03 |
Did he do it on Blue Cross? |
00:20:05 |
- His name was Raymond Chandler. |
00:20:07 |
And we had a gag, a sort of stupid, |
00:20:15 |
I used to ask him |
00:20:18 |
He wasn't a bit hard-boiled, |
00:20:21 |
and he hated any sort of violence. |
00:20:24 |
Some nights I wouldn't let |
00:20:26 |
until he told me the plot |
00:20:29 |
Which was, of course, |
00:20:33 |
Sometimes it nearly drove him crazy. |
00:20:37 |
Isn't it funny the things you do |
00:20:40 |
We were both seniors at NYU, |
00:20:45 |
Why didn't you marry him? |
00:20:48 |
I don't know. |
00:20:51 |
Maybe we took the joke too far. |
00:20:53 |
Maybe the fun went out of it. |
00:20:57 |
I thought Walter was going |
00:21:01 |
So it was Farewell, My Lovely. |
00:21:03 |
Did you ever see that? |
00:21:07 |
Anyway, I think if I look |
00:21:11 |
and this guy is still in New York, |
00:21:14 |
- Are you out of your mind? |
00:21:17 |
I can't just call him up and say, |
00:21:21 |
"You deflowered me 12 years ago. |
00:21:25 |
Final gas-chromatograph readings |
00:21:29 |
- Thank you so much for this. |
00:21:33 |
- Long time. |
00:21:39 |
You married a dentist, |
00:21:41 |
Lawyer. |
00:21:43 |
You happy? |
00:21:45 |
- Yes, very. |
00:21:49 |
- Are you married? |
00:21:53 |
And, yes, very. |
00:21:56 |
Here's the report you ordered, |
00:21:58 |
Thank you, Elizabeth. |
00:22:01 |
Well, I can say right off the bat that... |
00:22:08 |
...you've got water in your water. |
00:22:13 |
Now, what can I tell you girls? |
00:22:14 |
I mean, I wouldn't want to drink |
00:22:17 |
- but it's water. |
00:22:20 |
Yes, but in order to do that, |
00:22:23 |
I'd specifically have to know |
00:22:28 |
I mean, there's nothing here. |
00:22:36 |
Well, can you go any further |
00:22:41 |
I'm sorry, about what? |
00:22:44 |
The women in Stepford |
00:22:47 |
and I thought there might be |
00:22:53 |
- Where did you find her? |
00:22:55 |
No, it isn't. |
00:22:57 |
All right. You're right. |
00:23:00 |
- Mrs... |
00:23:02 |
Markowe. |
00:23:03 |
I can tell you categorically that there's |
00:23:08 |
If there was, I would patent it myself, |
00:23:12 |
win the Nobel Prize and retire. |
00:23:17 |
I guess we're going. |
00:23:27 |
- I'm sorry. Tell her that. |
00:23:37 |
Hey, |
00:23:39 |
we blew it, didn't we? |
00:23:43 |
I don't know, Raymond. |
00:23:46 |
It's hard to be smart. |
00:23:49 |
Yeah. |
00:23:50 |
Bye-bye. |
00:23:57 |
I don't care what anybody says. |
00:24:00 |
I'm not going to end up like |
00:24:04 |
I'm getting the hell out of Stepford. |
00:24:08 |
I'll ask Dave tonight, |
00:24:10 |
Hey, hey, hey, you too. |
00:24:13 |
You can't break up a team like us. |
00:24:16 |
since Laurel and Hardy. |
00:24:19 |
"Zoom. |
00:24:21 |
"Zoot suit. |
00:24:23 |
"Zulu." |
00:24:27 |
And that's that. |
00:24:57 |
I'm finally finished. |
00:25:01 |
When was that? |
00:25:09 |
Walter, would you move? |
00:25:14 |
No, no. |
00:25:18 |
- What? What did I say? |
00:25:24 |
We just got to Stepford. |
00:25:27 |
Hey, are you that unhappy? |
00:25:31 |
Is it everything you expected? |
00:25:34 |
Well... |
00:25:36 |
No. No, it's not, but... |
00:25:38 |
...I just didn't want to be |
00:25:40 |
You know, I'm the one that wanted |
00:25:43 |
You think the men are dull. |
00:25:46 |
Well, I think the women are too. |
00:25:49 |
You're right. I agree with you. |
00:25:52 |
Yeah, but the area sure is nice, |
00:25:54 |
It's perfect for the kids. |
00:25:57 |
Maybe Norwood or Eastbridge. |
00:26:01 |
OK, let's move. |
00:26:04 |
You mean it? |
00:26:06 |
I just had to ask? |
00:26:09 |
Well, I don't want |
00:26:11 |
What is it, June already? And I got |
00:26:17 |
OK, I'll tell you what. |
00:26:18 |
Why don't you look around, |
00:26:20 |
That way, the kids can get settled in |
00:26:26 |
Hey, these papers are all |
00:26:28 |
I mean, you're crushing |
00:26:30 |
I'll make you a beneficiary. |
00:26:32 |
I guess Mr Ziegler |
00:26:34 |
- You mean it? We can move? |
00:26:37 |
Oh, Walter. |
00:26:40 |
Oh, Walter, you're really sweet. |
00:26:55 |
Girls, I think after four houses, |
00:26:59 |
This may be it. |
00:27:01 |
He's an ITT VP transferred to |
00:27:13 |
There will be at least eight lonely ladies |
00:27:18 |
I don't know how he got away |
00:27:20 |
- Oh, my. |
00:27:22 |
They gave me the key, but you |
00:27:27 |
Thanks. Oh, Mrs Kirgassa, |
00:27:31 |
Oh, she's fat and lovely. |
00:27:34 |
What a treat. When I told Dave |
00:27:37 |
he nearly jumped out of his skin. |
00:27:39 |
He threatened to cancel The Plaza. |
00:27:41 |
- What is The Plaza? |
00:27:44 |
I'm supposed to ask you |
00:27:47 |
so Dave and I can have a weekend, |
00:27:52 |
It's to commemorate the time |
00:27:55 |
and faked her up to his room. |
00:27:58 |
Hell, I had to lose it sometime. |
00:27:59 |
- The coast is clear. Come on, girls. |
00:28:03 |
- Anyway, will you do it for me? |
00:28:06 |
Take care of the kids and the dog |
00:28:09 |
Oh, I know it's just a horrible thing |
00:28:12 |
- No. Yes, it is, but OK. |
00:28:16 |
The girls at least |
00:28:18 |
Ever since dear old Fred departed, |
00:28:21 |
- to get another one. |
00:28:24 |
- I don't know about Walter, though. |
00:28:27 |
Well, you know, Walter hates noise. |
00:28:30 |
- I want one! |
00:28:32 |
The dog's under the table, for crying... |
00:28:36 |
Honey, can I have |
00:28:39 |
Dolly is... |
00:28:41 |
I wish you would... |
00:28:43 |
Can I have |
00:28:46 |
How many pancakes are you |
00:29:38 |
- Joanna. |
00:29:41 |
Look, I played Monopoly with them. |
00:29:45 |
I played backgammon. I played |
00:29:48 |
They're in the kitchen now. |
00:29:50 |
Walter, you've had seven years |
00:29:54 |
I'm sorry, but I'm onto something, |
00:29:56 |
and I think maybe it's the best I've ever |
00:30:00 |
But how do I amuse them? |
00:30:02 |
I amuse them seven days a week. |
00:30:06 |
They know all the |
00:30:10 |
- Have a sing-along. |
00:30:13 |
Jesus. |
00:30:16 |
Mr Atkinson, I've been at these |
00:30:20 |
because I had to get them into |
00:30:23 |
because I think |
00:30:25 |
and you've got to think so too. |
00:30:28 |
I'm doing all the talking, I know, |
00:30:32 |
and those are someone else's, |
00:30:35 |
And you've just got to tell me, |
00:30:38 |
am I crazy? |
00:30:41 |
Aren't they good? |
00:30:43 |
Please say something. |
00:30:46 |
No, I do care. |
00:30:48 |
Don't say anything bad. |
00:30:51 |
These are really quite good. |
00:30:55 |
You're not saying that because you're |
00:30:58 |
Clearly, you are a crazy lady, |
00:31:04 |
Wait a minute. |
00:31:06 |
You said "good". |
00:31:10 |
Good is better than nice. |
00:31:12 |
You're not changing your mind, |
00:31:13 |
No. The results are lovely. |
00:31:16 |
Don't get upset again. |
00:31:20 |
But what fascinates me is, |
00:31:23 |
what is it you want from it all? |
00:31:25 |
Do you know? |
00:31:28 |
I want... |
00:31:30 |
...somewhere... |
00:31:32 |
...someday, someone to look |
00:31:35 |
"Hey, that reminds of an Ingles." |
00:31:38 |
Ingles was my maiden name. |
00:31:41 |
I guess I want to be remembered. |
00:31:43 |
Yeah, don't we all? |
00:31:45 |
Bobby? |
00:31:47 |
- It's me. |
00:31:51 |
I've just come from Atkinson's |
00:31:55 |
Well, not loves, maybe, but he's |
00:31:59 |
The gallery for photographers. |
00:32:01 |
That's wonderful, Joanna. |
00:32:04 |
If you're going to tell me |
00:32:07 |
I'm sticking my head |
00:32:09 |
Dave bought it for me for the weekend. |
00:32:12 |
How about the shape? |
00:32:15 |
Padded uplift bra. |
00:32:17 |
It's true what they say in the ads. |
00:32:20 |
Oh, Joanna, Dave turned |
00:32:23 |
- and I went mad. |
00:32:26 |
At The Plaza, some guy tried |
00:32:29 |
You know how long it's been |
00:32:33 |
Of course, I did look terrific. |
00:32:34 |
Bobby, you're not at The Plaza now, so |
00:32:38 |
You never even used to clean |
00:32:43 |
Admit it, Joanna, I was a joke. |
00:32:46 |
Dave works hard all day long, |
00:32:50 |
- A slob. |
00:32:54 |
Nothing's got me. |
00:32:55 |
I just want to look like a woman and |
00:33:00 |
- You're just like Charmaine. |
00:33:04 |
And you're not going to leave |
00:33:06 |
Leave Stepford? |
00:33:11 |
No. You're right. |
00:33:13 |
- Shall I make us a nice pot of coffee? |
00:33:18 |
Stop by any time. I'll be here. |
00:33:55 |
- Oh, my God, look out! |
00:34:14 |
OK, so you're upset. So you pass |
00:34:18 |
Bobby Markowe buys a new bra, |
00:34:19 |
and I gotta pay for a new mailbox |
00:34:22 |
So what? So, what are you |
00:34:25 |
Why can't you understand? |
00:34:28 |
Yeah, so you said. |
00:34:30 |
Look, I hate to come on |
00:34:32 |
but what's that got to do |
00:34:34 |
It wasn't just that. |
00:34:36 |
She's changed! |
00:34:39 |
Are you two fighting? |
00:34:42 |
- No. |
00:34:45 |
Look, we're not fighting. We're just |
00:34:48 |
Go on outside, all right? |
00:34:53 |
Oh, boy. This is really terrific. |
00:34:57 |
This is really terrific for them, |
00:35:00 |
Yeah, I remember when my mother |
00:35:03 |
- I didn't want them to go through this. |
00:35:06 |
I'm sorry. I said I'm sorry about |
00:35:10 |
Oh, look. That's no big deal. |
00:35:13 |
Just try to look at it |
00:35:16 |
Walter, I just want to say |
00:35:18 |
Bobby really has changed. |
00:35:21 |
Everything in her house |
00:35:23 |
Well, good. Good. |
00:35:27 |
It looked like a goddamn pigsty. |
00:35:34 |
I mean, when are things |
00:35:36 |
That's what I'd like to know. |
00:35:38 |
I mean, just look at the way |
00:35:42 |
Jeez, I work 80 hours a week. |
00:35:44 |
I live in a great house, and my kids |
00:35:52 |
Look, if you paid a little more attention |
00:35:56 |
- to your goddamn picture-taking... |
00:35:59 |
I'm getting us a house now, |
00:36:02 |
And if it's hard on the kids, |
00:36:04 |
I'll ease up on my goddamn picture- |
00:36:07 |
and believe me, they'll survive. |
00:36:09 |
That's what I'm talking about, Walter, |
00:36:15 |
OK. All right. |
00:36:16 |
I mean, I'll take a loss |
00:36:19 |
But there's one condition, |
00:36:22 |
You see somebody. You get |
00:36:25 |
I'm fine. |
00:36:28 |
Yeah, well, you say you're fine, |
00:36:31 |
because I'm not too anxious |
00:36:33 |
and after four months there, be told |
00:36:36 |
because she doesn't like the way her |
00:36:40 |
Look, I'm not asking anything |
00:36:46 |
But you want me to disrupt our lives |
00:36:49 |
in a couple of months |
00:36:52 |
Now, that's the unreasonable part. |
00:36:54 |
You've got to see that. |
00:37:04 |
You and me, |
00:37:09 |
We're going to move. |
00:37:11 |
It's only a few more weeks. |
00:37:20 |
It doesn't have to be |
00:37:23 |
There's a couple of topnotch guys |
00:37:26 |
Just talk to one of them. |
00:37:30 |
But I wouldn't see them. |
00:37:34 |
If I see anybody, I'll find my own. |
00:37:41 |
I'm here at my husband's insistence. |
00:37:45 |
We moved to Stepford with our |
00:37:50 |
Before that, we lived in Manhattan. |
00:37:53 |
And now I want to move out. |
00:37:57 |
You see, I have nothing |
00:38:01 |
but the women in Stepford just seem |
00:38:06 |
Well, that all seems |
00:38:09 |
And your husband wants you |
00:38:13 |
He feels I'm being irrational. |
00:38:18 |
He says there's no certainty |
00:38:22 |
or someplace like that any better. |
00:38:24 |
And he doesn't want to spend his life |
00:38:30 |
Yes, understandable, |
00:38:33 |
but Stepford, I know, |
00:38:37 |
So I also understand |
00:38:41 |
I'd be unhappy there. |
00:38:43 |
Any move is traumatic, |
00:38:46 |
for a woman with interests |
00:38:49 |
can seem like a jaunt to Siberia. |
00:38:53 |
What would you think of |
00:39:00 |
Writers, artists. |
00:39:02 |
Now you have no reason |
00:39:04 |
but Truro, Massachusetts, |
00:39:08 |
for psychoanalysts. |
00:39:09 |
Perhaps Stepford is heaven |
00:39:13 |
One person tells another. |
00:39:17 |
Some don't like it and leave. |
00:39:20 |
I mean, Westport |
00:39:24 |
They didn't breed from an original pair. |
00:39:27 |
I understand. |
00:39:28 |
Well, I'm not surprised. |
00:39:53 |
What does surprise me is that you |
00:40:00 |
and then you don't talk to me. |
00:40:31 |
I think the men are behind it. |
00:40:36 |
What men? |
00:40:38 |
All of them. |
00:40:42 |
All of them in the Association. |
00:40:49 |
My husband, everyone. |
00:40:54 |
The women don't... |
00:40:57 |
Can't arrive in Stepford |
00:41:00 |
They change once they get there. |
00:41:05 |
How would they do that? |
00:41:06 |
I don't know. They... |
00:41:09 |
They... |
00:41:14 |
Oh, Jesus. |
00:41:16 |
It's so awful. |
00:41:21 |
And if I'm right, |
00:41:27 |
I don't know what they do exactly. |
00:41:30 |
They draw our pictures, |
00:41:34 |
And the women |
00:41:37 |
There's a man. |
00:41:39 |
He runs the pharmacy. |
00:41:42 |
And he's nothing. |
00:41:44 |
He's nothing, but his wife |
00:41:49 |
And once, by mistake, I happened |
00:41:52 |
and she was carrying on incredibly, |
00:41:57 |
And Charmaine changed in four |
00:42:01 |
And Bobby, my best friend, |
00:42:04 |
and that's what convinced me. |
00:42:05 |
That's how long I've been |
00:42:10 |
And I don't know what's going on. |
00:42:12 |
I just know something is wrong, |
00:42:18 |
You're terribly frightened, aren't you? |
00:42:22 |
Can you sleep? |
00:42:24 |
Well, that's easy. |
00:42:26 |
We'll see a lot of each other, |
00:42:29 |
See, it's unfortunate, but I have |
00:42:32 |
It's something I can't put off |
00:42:35 |
- but when I'm back, we'll talk. |
00:42:38 |
No, you don't want to talk, or what? |
00:42:40 |
I won't be here when you get back. |
00:42:43 |
It's going to happen before then. |
00:42:45 |
Don't ask me to explain it. |
00:42:48 |
There will be somebody with my name, |
00:42:53 |
but she won't take pictures, |
00:42:57 |
She'll... |
00:43:01 |
She'll... She'll be like one |
00:43:16 |
All right, now listen. |
00:43:18 |
I'll give you a prescription, |
00:43:21 |
Then you gather up your children, |
00:43:24 |
Don't tell your husband. |
00:43:26 |
Just go wherever you feel safe. |
00:43:28 |
- Now, do you have family? |
00:43:31 |
Well, just drive and stop someplace, |
00:43:34 |
and in a few days, |
00:43:36 |
I'll be back on the 10th, |
00:43:38 |
you ring me, I'll come to you, |
00:43:44 |
Now, how does that sound? |
00:44:38 |
They're not here. |
00:44:42 |
- Where are they? |
00:44:48 |
They're with friends. |
00:44:50 |
Amy? |
00:44:52 |
Kim? |
00:44:56 |
Which friends? |
00:45:00 |
They're fine. |
00:45:03 |
How was your visit? |
00:45:05 |
Walter, I'm taking the children away. |
00:45:07 |
Where are they? |
00:45:09 |
Look. Just... |
00:45:11 |
Look, we don't want you |
00:45:13 |
Now just go on upstairs |
00:45:16 |
Don't talk to me like that. I don't want |
00:45:19 |
Joanna, go upstairs |
00:45:22 |
Don't tell me what to do, |
00:45:33 |
- Joanna. |
00:45:42 |
Joanna, open this goddamn door! |
00:45:55 |
All right, you just stay in there, then. |
00:45:59 |
You just stay in there. |
00:46:30 |
Cornell call you? Yeah, yeah. |
00:46:35 |
I had some trouble. I don't know, |
00:46:43 |
Yeah, yeah. Well, I don't know. |
00:46:51 |
I do not know, |
00:46:54 |
She's upset. |
00:47:00 |
She ran upstairs. |
00:47:12 |
Yeah. |
00:47:14 |
Well, she's in the room. |
00:47:18 |
Yeah. |
00:47:20 |
Yeah. I think it's... |
00:47:28 |
Oh, Dis? |
00:47:30 |
Well, what should I do? |
00:47:32 |
Oh, I'll just... |
00:48:15 |
Why, look at you, |
00:48:18 |
Bobby. Bobby, listen. |
00:48:20 |
You need a fresh-perked |
00:48:22 |
I don't want any coffee. |
00:48:25 |
Well, they're not here. |
00:48:27 |
Dave's working late, |
00:48:29 |
so I could give myself a chance |
00:48:33 |
Who ever told you |
00:48:35 |
No one. No one, but the night |
00:48:38 |
It just seemed logical to me. |
00:48:40 |
Changed me? What's that mean? |
00:48:42 |
I don't know. I really don't. |
00:48:46 |
Bobby, stop it! Look at me. |
00:48:50 |
You are different. |
00:48:53 |
what you talk about, |
00:48:56 |
Yes. Yes. This, it's wonderful. |
00:49:00 |
Why don't you change your mind |
00:49:03 |
What does "archaic" mean? |
00:49:05 |
- Archaic? |
00:49:06 |
- I don't know. |
00:49:09 |
When we went to Marie Axhelm's |
00:49:11 |
- she didn't know, but you did. |
00:49:16 |
How do you want it? |
00:49:20 |
- It wasn't on the word list, was it? |
00:49:27 |
- Do you take cream? |
00:49:29 |
- Oh, that's right. You take it black. |
00:49:36 |
- Do you bleed? |
00:49:41 |
No, you look. |
00:49:44 |
Joanna. |
00:49:58 |
How could you do a thing like that? |
00:50:14 |
How could you do a thing like that? |
00:50:22 |
How could you do a thing like that? |
00:50:28 |
When I was just going |
00:50:31 |
When I was just going |
00:50:35 |
When I was just going |
00:50:39 |
I thought we were friends. |
00:50:42 |
I thought we were friends. |
00:50:44 |
I was just going to give you coffee. |
00:50:46 |
I was just going to give you coffee. |
00:50:49 |
I thought we were friends. |
00:50:51 |
I thought we were friends. |
00:50:53 |
I thought we were friends. |
00:50:55 |
How could you do a thing like that? |
00:50:57 |
I thought we were friends. |
00:51:01 |
She must have sneaked out |
00:51:04 |
Listen, Walter. It's gonna be OK. |
00:51:06 |
The phones are jammed, the alarm |
00:51:10 |
Everybody's out looking for her, |
00:51:18 |
I'll be back, all right? |
00:53:02 |
I want my children! |
00:53:06 |
Where are they? |
00:53:08 |
Where are they? Where are |
00:53:15 |
Association. |
00:55:19 |
Mommy? |
00:55:26 |
Mommy? |
00:56:07 |
Mommy? |
00:56:19 |
Mommy? |
00:56:29 |
Mommy? |
00:56:32 |
Mommy? |
00:56:34 |
Mommy? |
00:56:38 |
Mommy? |
00:56:42 |
Mommy? |
00:56:44 |
Hello, Joanna. |
00:56:46 |
Mom...? |
00:56:49 |
Quite a lot of worry |
00:56:52 |
Poor Walter is very concerned. |
00:56:58 |
Where are my children? |
00:57:00 |
The first time I met you, |
00:57:03 |
Well, they're quite safe. |
00:57:05 |
Having a lovely |
00:57:07 |
She was thrilled to have them. |
00:57:15 |
What have you got there? |
00:57:18 |
Oh, no. No. |
00:57:21 |
It's nothing like that at all. |
00:57:24 |
You've had the wrong |
00:57:26 |
It's nothing like you imagine. |
00:57:28 |
Just another stage. |
00:57:31 |
Think about it like that, |
00:57:36 |
Why? |
00:57:38 |
Why? |
00:57:41 |
Because we can. |
00:57:46 |
We found a way of doing it, |
00:57:48 |
It's perfect for us |
00:57:55 |
You're a very good subject. |
00:57:57 |
Perhaps the best we've had. |
00:57:59 |
You were brighter than most. |
00:58:02 |
Do you mind if I make a call? |
00:58:10 |
See, think of it |
00:58:13 |
Wouldn't you like some perfect stud |
00:58:16 |
Praising you? Servicing you? |
00:58:19 |
Whispering how your sagging flesh |
00:58:21 |
no matter how you looked? |
00:58:23 |
Excuse me. |
00:58:26 |
Everything's fine. |
00:58:29 |
Just as I said. |
00:58:33 |
Yes, I'll take it from now. |
00:58:36 |
Everybody can go home. |
00:58:41 |
Well, |
00:58:43 |
that's all there is. |
00:58:46 |
So why don't we get it over. |
00:58:50 |
You know, you hurried us a little. |
00:58:53 |
if you want to know the truth. |
01:00:45 |
Oh, no. |
01:00:55 |
Oh, God. |
01:02:05 |
- Hi, Kit. How are you? |
01:02:23 |
Linda, what do you want? |
01:02:25 |
I don't want to spend my |
01:02:27 |
Look, we live in a nice neighbourhood. |
01:02:30 |
This is clean, safe. |
01:02:41 |
Why don't you give it a chance. |
01:02:45 |
- Hello, Marie. |
01:03:02 |
- Hi, Carol. |
01:03:21 |
- Hello, Carol. |
01:03:29 |
- Hi, Bobby. |
01:03:32 |
Oh, I'm fine. |
01:04:02 |
- Hello, Bobby. |
01:04:05 |
- Oh, I'm fine. How are you? |
01:04:08 |
- How are the children? |
01:04:10 |
- And yours? |
01:05:53 |
