Not as a satirical and critical commentary on 50's America
sadly, satire is what it will always be, due to self-denial on the part of the people involved
For a very long time, there has been an accepted strategy where you create a film to satisfy some obvious fantasy need, like 1950s glamour and dresses, and the audience shows up to see that -- but the plot has to wrap that fantasy with obvious parody
and a whole series of out-of-place "progressive" jabs at that era, because those bits on top give the audience something like an excuse and an alibi.
This way, when a young woman goes to see the film and actually enjoys the old fashioned visuals, beauty, etc, she doesn't have to face the internal contradiction that all those things belong to an era which would roll its eyes at her contemporary beliefs. She can have a few pseudo-feminist lines thrown into the dialogue, lots of mocker/parody of the time period with ridiculous characters who exaggerrate the era's beliefs, and that way get to enjoy the fantasy while pretending that she's actually smarter and wiser than those old times.
