CineTV Contest: The Stepford Wives, a film to sleep. predictable! [ENG/ ESP]

Review by @pialejoana ยท 1470d ยท of The Stepford Wives


Hello, Hello Movie Addicts!

๐ŸŽฅ๐ŸŽฅ


I agree with the version presented in the CineTV Contest Post:

Many times, day-to-day activities leave us exhausted and as much as we want to see a movie to enter the "relax" stage, sleep defeats us. This is a common fact, but it is accentuated when we choose a movie so boring that it seems more like a lullaby to encourage our dreams. From my side, I usually watch movies for very late hours at night. For some time now, I have decided not to leave movies halfway, so if you started one I try not to leave it halfway.

In my case, I have seen many boring movies that managed to cultivate sleep soon, this time I will mention:

The Stepford Wives:

The plot deals with how a world is dreamed of through the macho tendency to change women. Initially it is an experiment, where the perfect society is sought through the use of chips to convert and control women. These, for their part, become housewives confined to living their life at home, taking care of the children, the husband and always happy and ready to please the husband and the prevailing society with a smile from ear to ear. They honestly look so perfect, encased in detailed dresses, fake smiles, and thousands of chores eagerly awaited to be performed.

But wait, I'm a woman and far from perfect (common fact). Basically it bores me because it focuses on turning off the light on women, arguing that for a "perfect" society to function, they must be robots. The landscapes, typical of urbanizations I suppose, of high chain of money destined for suburbs. But, as for the dialogue and script, it is somewhat boring. Honestly, it's a predictable, sad and therefore boring story.

Watching this movie in its entirety was quite a feat, in that it was first turning the lighter into "tolerance" mode. To then try to assimilate the dark humor developed in unreality. It is not that my most challenging side of feminism is brought into focus, but rather that following in the continuity from where it was inspired, it goes in the opposite direction. The film was basically an adaptation of the book "The Perfect Women" by Ira Levin; remaining rather opaque in between untied thread. When you have read the book in detail, you compare and everything is "sloppy", except for the presence of Nicole Kidman, who at least shines in the film as in most performances.

A fun fact I might add to even make this interesting is that the "Perfection" syndrome fostered in the film is currently on the rise. Many women choose to seek perfection based on masculine feelings, a fact that denigrates the background of "true desire".

As I said, it is a story that quickly unravels the road and therefore there is no point of "suspense" or "hook overturn", I suppose they could have used the resources better. But...

Let's take a blanket with the pillow and go to sleep!

[ESPAร‘OL]


Tรญtulo: Las Mujeres Perfectas, una pelรญcula para dormir.ยกPredecible!


ยกHola, Hola Adictos al Cine!

๐ŸŽฅ๐ŸŽฅ


Estoy de acuerdo con la versiรณn presentada en el Post del Concurso de CineTV:

*Muchas veces las actividades del dรญa a dรญa nos dejan agotados y por mรกs que deseemos ver una pelรญcula para entrar en la etapa de "relax", el sueรฑo nos vence. Este es un hecho comรบn, pero se ve acentuado cuando elegimos una pelรญcula tan aburrida que mรกs bien parece una canciรณn de cuna para fomentar nuestros sueรฑos. Desde mi lado, suelo ver pelรญculas por horas muy tarde de la noche. Desde un tiempo para acรก, he decidido no dejar pelรญculas a mitad, por ello si iniciรณ una trato de no dejarle a medias.*

En mi caso, he visto muchas pelรญculas aburridas que lograron cultivar el sueรฑo pronto, en esta ocasiรณn mencionarรฉ:

Las Mujeres Perfectas:

La trama trata como un mundo es soรฑado a travรฉs de la tendencia machista de cambiar las mujeres. Inicialmente es un experimento, donde se busca la sociedad perfecta a travรฉs de uso de chips para convertir y controlar a las mujeres. ร‰stas por su lado, se vuelven amas de casa confinadas a vivir su vida en el hogar, cuidando de los hijos, del marido y siempre felices y dispuestas a complacer con una sonrisa oreja a oreja al marido y a la sociedad imperante. Sinceramente se pintan tan perfectas, encajadas en los vestidos detallosos, sonrisas falsas, y miles de quehaceres esperados con ansias por ser ejecutados.

Pero espera, soy mujer y muy lejos de la perfecciรณn (hecho comรบn). Bรกsicamente me aburre porque se enfoca en apagar la luz de las mujeres, planteando que para un funcionamiento de sociedad "perfecta", estas deben ser robots. Los paisajes, tรญpicos de urbanizaciones supongo, de alta cadena de dinero destinada a suburbios. Pero, en cuanto al diรกlogo y libreto, se muestra un tanto aburrida. Sinceramente es una historia predecible, triste y por ende aburrida.

Ver esta pelรญcula en manera completa fue una proeza, de por si era pasar primero el encendedor al modo "tolerancia". Para luego tratar de asimilar el humor oscuro desarrollado en la irrealidad. No es que se lleve a enfoque mi mรกs desafiante lado de feminismo, sino que siguiendo en la continuidad de donde fue inspirada, va en sentido opuesto. El film, bรกsicamente fue una adaptaciรณn del libro "Las mujeres perfectas", de Ira Levin; quedando mรกs bien opacado en entre hilo desatado. Cuando has leรญdo de manera detallada el libro, comparas y todo estรก "descuidado", salvo por la presencia de Nicole Kidman, quien al menos resplandece en el film como en la mayorรญa de las actuaciones.

Un dato curioso que podrรญa agregar siquiera para hacer esto interesante, es que el sรญndrome de "Perfecciรณn" fomentado en el film va en auge actualmente. Muchas mujeres optan por buscar la perfecciรณn en base al sentir masculino, hecho que denigra el fondo del "deseo verdadero".

Como ya dije, es una historia que rรกpidamente desata el camino y por lo tanto no existe un punto de "suspenso" o "vuelco de enganche", supongo que pudieron haber aprovechado mejor los recursos. Pero...

ยกTomemos una cobija con la almohada y a dormir!

    Haha! I love the last sentence because I grabbed mine while reading the plot. Lol. A movie that's predictable sucks most of the time.
