Yeah, I do like to provide helpful links.
oh... hmm, so you don't want this 1970's Laura Ashley style flowery frock with big puffy sleeves I've bought you then?
You know.. as a male.. and a geeky programmer male at that.. the first thing I'd do when I received delivery of my new Stepford wife would be to re-write the operating system software and install a "Nice / Naughty" switch
OK - I take it back, I don't miss you on the forum after all!!! Go lock yourself out again...
*BMI, what's your policy on tickets that are no longer needed... why do I want to get rid of it you ask? Because I've just discovered that someone has appallingly bad taste in women's clothes!*
William Goldman has a lot of fun about that in his book, Adventures in the screen trade. Seems the film was directed by Brian - Brian urm - oh well anyway, he was married to - oh god, what's her name, daughter was on Saturday mornings with whatsisname and Gordon the Gopher, did the Fairy Liquid adverts - anyway, she was the second female lead in the film, after Katherine Ross.
Bryan Forbes (daughter Emma) and Nanette Newman. Couldn't bring it to mind, had to look it up.
Anyway, Goldman wrote the screenplay and said everyone went ape***** when Forbes said he was going to cast his wife as one of the robot wives. They pointed out that the Stepford husbands were creating perfect wives - sluts in the bedroom, chefs in the kitchen, bodies to kill for. Nanette - in complete contrast - just looks like a sweet surburban woman.
Hence they all dress in New England/Amish clothes instead of the hot outfits that one would expect such unreconstructed MCPs to want to see their wives in.
