Lest Burnham is the typical middle class man. He has a wife and a daughter, a good job, and what every other typical middle class family has. However, he hates his life. His wife has become cold over the years, their daughter is a typical moody teenager, and his "good job" totally sucks. Needless to say he is having a mid-life crisis. Lester decides to make a change in his life but will these changes be the death of him?
American Beauty is a wonderful drama by DreamWorks. It took home Best Picture over: Miramax's The Cider House, Warner Brothers' The Green Mile, Touchstone's The Insider, and Hollywood's The Sixth Sense.
I have to say that this film was much more interesting that I thought it was going to be. A little weird but really good. I think the this is one of my favorite Kevin Spacey roles because he is just amazing in this film. I think I would be willing to watch this film again maybe not really soon but I would watch it again.
