The Stepford Wives (1975/2004) — The Jordan & Margot Become Girlboss Episode
It's a double stuffed episode of the Botcast, because Jordan and Margot are tackling two movies this time around: the original and the aughts versions of The Stepford Wives. One is a classic text of stripped down science fiction feminist horror, and the other is a study in white girlbossery with ham-fisted boob jokes. The '75 edition remains a stone cold classic, and while the 2000s remake might be a third layer carbon tear sheet of the source text, it does become a deeply valuable case study in the hellscape of critical thought that was mainstream millennium-era cinema. There are two time capsules and many lessons to learn in the Stepford discourse, and the Botcast is covering one of the most important of all: When a fembot exists in a movie, she will be subject to violence and sexual violence. Pack a silk nighty and an eye mask, bitches. We're going to Ajax country!
