When Joanna Eberhart moves to the quiet suburb of Stepford, Connecticut, with her husband and children, the town seems perfect — almost too perfect. Joanna grows suspicious of Stepford's wives, who are shallow, creepily devoted to their housework, and unsettlingly subservient to their misogynistic husbands. By the end, she discovers a sinister truth that explains their behaviour. Like "Get Out," "The Stepford Wives" is a thrilling satire of society and upper-middle class whiteness, but from the perspective of gender instead of race. Just like "Rosemary's Baby," Peele also claimed that "The Stepford Wives" served as inspiration for "Get Out."
