Nicole Kidman made two movies in 2004: Birth and The Stepford Wives. I lose entire hours thinking about what an iconic flop era that was. A big glossy studio remake that was tested and re-tested into a new ending, but it still has a some sharp edges; an utterly strange, moving story about a boy walking into a woman’s apartment and saying he’s her dead husband reincarnated. The other girls just were not doing it like her.
