...look closer at the most talked about film of the year. Intelligent, provocative and wickedly funny, 'American Beauty' has struck a chord with audiences around the world and become a defining achievement in cinematic history.
Synopsis: A disillusioned man in the throws of a midlife crisis suddenly abandons his adulthood responsibilities?job, fatherhood, marital accord?and goes in for a Camaro-driving, pot-smoking lifestyle that puts his phony real-estate-agent wife into a major snit. Things get even more tense in his family when his teenage daughter's best friend throws herself at him, and his wife takes up with the oily, self-styled real-estate "King."
