Wendell Pierce is like a big whale seducing a young but willing little white guy. I mean the way he lusted after him when he took off his clothes and lay on the bed, was off putting. When he kept sweating this kid about not coming out to his parents, my brains screamed "Did you tell your wife and daughter?
The film was truly acted put quite well though.

Movie starts a little slow but the charm of the two leads, a model girl and a handsome junior exec looking guy, draws you in because you want something good to happen. It's about a chance meeting on the Eve of a model going to another city to be with her long-term guy. She meets a handsome stranger in a coffee shop and they spend a whole evening-into-nite discovering each other walking through the nite. Just plain old good acting and chemistry. I'm good with the ending too.
I find that the Stepford Wives isn't exactly a work of the greatest art but it is enticing. Something homey about it that soon turns a little unsettling. Still it's really an intelligent movie. It was made in 1975 and to me, Automation, Electronics and Technology wasn't so equipped to have these "Robots" made as they were. It kind of seems flip flopped in that area, as if the science to create such a society wasn't invented yet. I like Katherine Ross role because she is observant, her first observation being that the "ambulance" that drove the lady in the car accident away, didn't go towards to Hospital. The presence of all of those plants that allude to computers and electronics being part of the formula and the fact that Patrick O'Neil worked for Disneyland at one point could account for his knowledge of Robots (I guess) or the man who had Katherine voice recording and the Artist. I never engaged in it years ago but recently have gotten hooked on this movie.
