This is an amazingly cheesy public service short from the folks in Princeton and its purpose is to educate us about stress and tension--its effects and how to alleviate its effects. It does so in the best way a budget of $32.89 can manage! Despite the color film stock, it's obvious that the entire film was made with a bare-bones production. The acting is pretty bad--particularly the husband who acts with not even a trace of subtlety. He's supposed to be comic relief, but comes off more like a jerk in a local talent show who thinks he's hilarious. As for the loving wife, she is mechanical but semi-competent. The narration is pretty dull also--much like an extended 1960s No-Doze commercial. As for the sets and props, it is the sort of thing you'd expect from an 8mm film made by the local PTA.
So is it worth seeing? Well, despite being 100% cheese, there is a certain kitschy charm that might make you laugh and I could imagine watching it with friends--very, very, very patient and bizarre friends.
