| Plot |
| On the surface, Lester and Carolyn Burnham appear to be the perfect American suburban couple. But Lester is a man going through a mid-life crisis that will alter everything. Developing an insatiable crush on his teenage daughter's best friend (Mena Suvari) - and a marijuana habit thanks to the strange kid next door - the model husband and father decides that it is time to change his life for good. How will his repressed and obsessive estate agent wife and troubled adolescent daughter react to the new Lester? A stunning directorial debut from theatre wunderkind Sam Mendes, American Beauty is an Oscar-laden emotional and visual feast. |
