Interesting historical commentary
23 April 2006
I just saw this movie on cable TV (2006). This movie, for some reason, escaped me in my past movie viewing history. However, I thought it was a good social commentary of life in the 1950's, living in suburbia USA. Young couples were trying to get ahead in life; not happy living in "cookie cutter" houses. It all centered around not having enough money and "keeping up with the Jones next door" syndrome. All the actors / actresses in this movie did an okay job. But, I have seen them all do better in later movies. This is one of those movies that I would like to see again in a few years to remind me of what it was like in that era. Interesting to see the 1950's cars, houses, furniture and ladies clothes.
