🔪 Katharine Ross and Paula Prentiss became good friends during the shoot, so when Ross needed to stab "Bobbie" in a scene, she could not do it. Director Bryan Forbes shaved the back of his hand and completed the scene for her.

Percolator... very 70s #monsterdon

It was a dark and stormy night in every possible way #Monsterdon

Now we see the violence inherent in the system. #monsterdon #MontyPython

For people under the age of 30, she can tell by the fact that this light is on that he is on the telephone. #monsterdon

@ColesStreetPothole that was the sleeping pills I think, on reflection. She still should have skipped it and run straight to get the kids without stopping home or anywhere else. #monsterdon

i'm not having a real flashback about people throwing things and locking myself in a room i'm having a fake flashback

#monsterdon

This movie has a strong effect. I'm impressed with the unease it is causing.

Joanna when the phone is lit up like that it means he's talking on it you could pick up the receiver and listen...

lot's of divorces from shitty marriages were on the rise back then, this has the zeitgeist vibe of the time me thinks (teen in the 70s ahem)
#monsterdon

Home phones with a hold button and multiple extehsions? Nah. No one had those in the 70s.

#monsterdon

The house has more than one phone line? What the hell?

#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975

@diazona want to feed every man in this move to spiders #TeamSpider

#monsterdon

Oh no did she go to the same medical school as the ob gyn in Rosemary's Baby #monsterdon

oh no oh no

#monsterdon

Before the pandemic you could get a Stepford wife in about 2 weeks. #Monsterdon

Having those multi-line phones in a house was WILDLY expensive. The phones were expensive, the extra wiring in the house was expensive, the CO service and the extra pairs to your house was expensive. Nobody was dropping a cheap key system into your house at the time. #monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975

I'm going back and forth on whether or not the psychiatrist is in on the deal. #Monsterdon

therapiiiiiiisssssstttttttttt deus ex machina and the killdozer conclusion is back on the table!!!!! #monsterdon

"She'll be like one of those robots in Disneyland!"

#monsterdon

okay, this psychiatrist is winning my awards right now. #monsterdon

We have hit maximum symbolism in Disneyland!
#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives

Yes, Listen to her
#monsterdon

@crazypedia At least it wasn't her bosom #monsterdon

Just thinking of the old women who pops out to talk about new neighbors is up to, she seems like the only other non-Stepford Wives
#monsterdon

They should've made the walls in there yellow #monsterdon #thestepfordwives1975

like i guess there's going to be robots or something but we all know it's not really about that

it's about women losing their shit under gender norms and sexism and particularly as housewives in the suburbs

#monsterdon

She sure is noticing how attractive dudes' wives are.

#monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975

"If I'm wrong I'm insane. If I'm right, it's worse than if I'm wrong." hits so fucking hard these days

#monsterdon

@lytta Watching so many B-movies has atrophied my subtext muscle #monsterdon

Therapist laughs maniacally. Time to go. #Monsterdon

The music is also really good, adds to the mood
#monsterdon

this entire movie sure is metaphorical

#monsterdon

"I'm not surprised. You're obviously a very bright woman." The tone change here is so jarring, like oh shit, there's still a real world out here where I'm not crazy.

"What does surprise me is you've come all this way to talk to me, and then you don't talk to me."

#monsterdon

"I think the men are behind it."

(this is what men think feminism is like)

#Monsterdon

...Now tell her the rest of it. #Monsterdon

a very bright women and recently widowed from her girlfriend you're allowed to grieve

#monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975

okay i guess she's in MA

#monsterdon

Never go to see the psychiatrist your husband has chosen for you--haven't you seen any movies?

#Monsterdon

Suddenly the movie turned into Who's Afraid of Joanna Eberhart? #monsterdon

Poor Bobbi!!!! #monsterdon

Bobby got stepfordized #monsterdon

was the dead rat to signify she's returned to NYC?

#monsterdon

establishing independent lines of communication so that you can't be angelbanned into some oblivion where all your information is compromised in advance as a prerequisite for liberation (check) #monsterdon

"Joanna, have you heard about Better Help?"

#monsterdon

"i wouldn't see them" smart woman. #monsterdon

KILL ALL MEN #monsterdon #thestepfordwives1975

OK I officially hate Walter now

(as opposed to unofficially hating him before)

#Monsterdon

"for the second time" when the first time was your own damn fault. this movie does a really good job of making this guy an asshole. #monsterdon

Everything in my house really does look like a goddamn pigsty.

#Monsterdon

oh my god are the monsters of this movie gender normativity, heteronormativity, AND capitalism?

#monsterdon

"no we're not fighting, this is what a happy marriage looks like and it will for you too" #monsterdon

i like to think she would have driven away already if there weren't children involved

#monsterdon

"Good schools, low taxes"

I don't think most town budgets work like that

#monsterdon

that's it, lady, just keep driving. #monsterdon

"I amuse them 7 days a week!"
#monsterdon

"Shall I make us a nice pot of coffee?" *ominous minor key distorted horror music*

#Monsterdon

cue the evil dead chainsaw arm killdozer escape from stepford scene ASAP #monsterdon

the music is really doing it tho. #monsterdon

Oh no!!! Bobbie!!!

(makeup and a dress to look like a woman, gah, I hate this)

#Monsterdon

all these lines sound exactly like lines from commercials, it's perfect

#monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975

Quick aside: as a kid of parents who decided to move far away “for the kids” the first thing I did when I could live on my own was moving back to the city #monsterdon

Dammit Bobby
#monsterdon

#monsterdon frills! She's done for.

Oh no!

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🤵 👰 💍 😱 🤵 🤖 😬

Oh no she's be-ruffled

Aw, Bobby. :/ #Monsterdon

Bobbie what the HELL are you wearing

#Monsterdon

Oof Walter really brings nothing to the table when it comes to child-rearing huh

(70's, figures)

#Monsterdon

OH NO BOBBIE!

#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975

Uh oh! Apron!

#monsterdon
#TheStepfordWives

"Want any coffee?"

"We're not allowed to drink anything on the job, ma'am, except maybe beer."

#Monsterdon

A SESAME STREET SINGALONG.

If only we could do that here @Taweret

#monsterdon

"im starting to get the feeling this movie isnt just about a nice family that escapes the city" - my buddy lol
#monsterdon

A sheepdog makes any house more chaotic (and better).

#Monsterdon #StepfordWives

OH THAT''S A BIG FLUFFY DOG!!!

#monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975

I know it’s the whole point but all men in this movie are awful #monsterdon

@diazona take the kids and run though. The husband wouldn't notice for a couple days at least! #monsterdon

COFFEE! There's a dog under the table... But coffee please!

Wait, they just gave up on Fred?

I'm really enjoying the gigantic cars from the Jurassic period.

Absolutely enormous.

#Monsterdon

oh gods here come the weekends no no no no no no no

#monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975

An It vp moving to Panama isn't starting a revolution, he's starting a money laundering service

#monsterdon #StepfordWives1975

Maybe Norwood or Eastbridge or Southfork or Westhampton or Chicopee or Stamford or

#Monsterdon

All of this sounds like lesbians.

#monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975

you should not go on a weekend alone right now

#monsterdon

"Daddy, I just saw a man carrying a naked lady."

"Well, that's why we're moving to Stepford."

#Monsterdon

I still feel bad she thinks she has to ask permission to move. SHE CAN LEAVE. DO IT. GO. #monsterdon

sir, you indicated back when you agreed to this faustian deal that you didn't actually want her replaced. did we already replace him? #monsterdon

Ah! It's not the water, it's the air!
