      Being that the creator of the simulation was trying to emulate a 50s early 60s style environment (1950-1962) would likely have been the range. I think this can be given a pass. While he was going for accuracy it didn't have to be 100% accurate. Just close enough to make it believable. Its unlikely today many people would be able to tell what was from the 50s and what was from the early 60s.
      Hell Not many places even have homes or buildings of those era's anymore at least that's recognizable from the era.
      There are a few such as palm springs and a few older towns scattered here and there.

    The movie is a good example of an abusive relationship. He gaslights her into believing that anything wrong is just her imagination/things are fine, it puts her back in her place for a while, but each time is shorter and shorter that she realizes something is wrong. He claims he did everything for them/ her, as he forces her to do what he wants. She is tempted to remain there with the idea of "him", despite knowing how terribly he's treated her.

      There are two kinds. Those who long for the true 1950s, aka, people who would be further up the food chain were it 1950, but also people who long for simplicity and overly romanticize historical eras. The 1950s aesthetic is still popular to this day for a reason, and many people still emulate social roles from the 1950s intentionally, often in totally harmless ways. There were some very, very dark aspects to the 1950s, yes, but the idealized commercial aesthetic of the 1950s is appealing to many, many people for totally benign reasons.
      While I only really appreciate the 1950s from a purely aesthetic standpoint, I understand the longing for the nuclear family structure being normal, the commercialized veneer of politeness, the bright, smiley fakeness of it all.... it all makes a lot of sense. I don't think it's all nefarious. A lot of it is, yes. But not all of it.

    This looks like an excellent satire of Scientology. Firstly, Scientology has a serious 1950s vibe, probably due to its being founded then. Life in Victoryville is pretty much exactly the life the Scientologists believe those who have rid themselves of their spirit-maggots or "thetans" or whatever, would want to live. Secondly, the part about the men going to that mountain to enter the real world where they go out and work as gardeners or any work they can get, to pump that money back into keeping the cult going, is very, very much how Scientology operates. There are plenty of gardeners and janitors and dishwashers etc. pumping too much of their hard-earned money into the cult. Plus, the cult leader is like a spoof of Scientology's cult leader, McCavity or whatever his name is. Plus this has got tons of neat classic cars and someone put some real work into the house decor and 1950s "posh" food, so this is a win on that count alone.

    If this was a high fidelity immersive VR simulation, then why didn’t they create a larger city or with more elements, characters or storyline? I mean even if you had unlimited money and the town was perfect, anyone will get bored after a while. It’s like playing Sims with just the default town forever. After a while you want something more, especially if this was virtual reality.

      It wasn’t just about the technology, but also about the incel ideology of Frank. The world was modeled after his idealized version of reality.
      There wasn’t meant to be a storyline. Everyone just had a “background” and setting, and all the participants ran independently, much like the real world. That’s why pugh’s character was “destabilizing” the world with her lucidity. The empty eggs and plane crash was the code responding to her awareness as “glitches.” It also explains why the bulbs blew up when she was trying to escape.
      It’s also why frank was so impressed with her and saw her as a “challenge.” He created an orderly code, yet her curiosity began to defy his reality

      I used to live in a large culturally diverse Canadian city and thought I would be glad to leave behind the crowds and noise and lack of green space. Moved to rural Maritimes. A lot of space, and nature here but very very conformist and people are judgemental of anyone different. Everyone thinks and acts the same. It reminds me of the Panopticon prison model where all the inmates can see each other at all times and in effect become each other's wardens. Every place looks like a Normal Rockwell painting. Yes, no crime and a lot of green space, but also very restrictive. Conversation, food choices -- everything is very limiting. The anonymity and diversity of cities are something I miss. On the other hand, being closer to nature is nice.

      Insecure women need boosting to their own fragile female egos, so they project it onto men. Those women are butthurt probably because of bad interactions with men, and the only way to raise their self-esteem is a female revenge and power fantasy, marketed successfully to the weak-minded suffering from a crippling female inferiority complex.

    I just noticed by only watching this that the song of "Harry Style - As it Was" lyrics parallels most of the movies plot.

      Because surgeons don't get rich from day 1 and given thr cost of American medical schools they are probably saddled with debt, and there's nothing normal about the current housing market

    Different version of the “Stepford Wives”. I liked the original, and the remake. This seems like it should be good too.
    I did notice the actor playing Frank used to play on Guiding Light soap opera, as the son of Joshua and Riva Lewis. Nice to see he's still working.
