Steve Balderson's new film, "The Casserole Club" focuses on a group of mod 1960's era suburban housewives. Close-knit and neighborly, they are all bent on one-upping each other, trying to prove that each is "the hostess with the mostess." They begin a recipe club, and hold dinner parties, testing out their new casseroles. But when the gatherings become increasingly focused on boozy flirtation, and more than recipes start getting swapped, the story moves swiftly from stylized and campy to a drama about irresponsibility, selfishness, and damaged people.

"The Casserole Club" is an intricate landscape of desolation, unspoken desires, and empty lives laid bare. Raw and uncompromising, it is evocative of classics like "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" and the more contemporary "American Beauty." Set in America during the NASA moonwalk, the moon, is a metaphor for the film's tragic heroines, who are filled with mystery, secrets and the untapped potential of people who exist without really living.

Starring Susan Traylor, Kevin Richardson, Daniela Sea, Mark Booker, Starina Johnson, Garrett Swann, Pleasant Gehman, Hunter Bodine, Michael Maize, and introducing Jennifer Grace.

"Magnificent, another tour-de-force by the best kept secret in American cinema. The cast -work together brilliantly. Steve's direction is faultless. Rob Kleiner's score is literally note-perfect "
- MJ Simpson

"For the first time in his career, Steve Balderson has mastered both cinematic rhythm and cinematic space."
- Dr. Joseph Suglia

confused by the overall low score

I watched this on youtube a few years ago and really enjoyed it. There were great layers of drama and emotion.

Maybe a re-edit of "The Casserole Club"?

I haven't seen The Casserole Club, and there's very little info on this page for this film. If you go to the aforementioned film's page, you'll see more helpful info about the actors in Sex, Lies, and Sugar. If this ISN'T the same film redone or re-released, these actors have aged incredibly well in the ensuing 11 years. I was pleasantly surprised in this film overall. The apparent low budget shows, and some of the acting is a bit student filmish. Nonetheless, it's titillating enough, and you get some character development as well. Bob Dylan's daughter-in-law is the titular character, and the cast also has one of The Backstreet Boys!
