i saw this movie for the first time yesterday. it has become one of my favorites. this was a perfect ending. it reassured me that life is fragile and were all on our way to the understanding of life and death once we experience it. we are getting closer to that moment every second..

This scene makes me want to cry. Sometimes I think my own heart beats a bit faster from listening to this. As if I can almost feel the energy that's flowing through me; like it's about it make me explode. This film makes me want to cry, even though the tears may never come.

a truly beautiful film. cinematic elements were brilliant, actors were amazing, it was well written with an incredibly heartwrenching and thoughtprovoking ending. love it.

I could talk about this film for a long time. I think it has a place wiht the graduate, angels with dirty faces and toy story for being sentimental and honest and with a message for mankind. American Beauty - look closer, the American Dream dont bring happyness but a panging hunger to be a consumer without a heart.

HIs loss of direction in his life...was ignited...with his obsession with angela hayes was him transferring what he had with Carolyn on to Angela. He wanted to hold on to his youth, his grip on life because it just floats past so slowly, but floats by.

for me, this film wouldnt have been what it was for kevin spacey. Im grateful for this as it is a milestone in my life. as lover of the cinema, it touched me in a 'spiritual way' or somewhere in my mind that made me appreciate having less to be more content.

Humour: this has so many themes of suburban life orchestrated from start to end and its highlighted in the funniest ways...the drive in? It was the excuse he needed to end the eggshell marriage.

In fact, thats the root of the movie. The american dream doesnt bring happyness, mabye wealth, but, at what cost? You realise the day you die because having stuff only remains in the memory a short time but significant people stay with you forever.

Carolyn Burnham is the status obsessed ass that lives in most of streets these days:middle class Mrs keeping up with the jonses. Materialism and consumed at being a consumer...but not aware of her 'condition' - thats one of the things Lester realised that his wife never.

This is the best film ever made. Let me make that clear and Il tell you why i belive it. I think the characters, are so well brought to life. I can identify with Lesters feelings of displacement and fragmentation. He is wondering why he has the job he has and it dawned on him that it is not fulfilling.

There is a God/creator, that's what this movie is about

His wife thought he killed himself and picked up the gun and threw it in the laundry bin, however, his neighbor killed him because he thought that Kevin Spacey (the character) had "corrupted" his son into being gay, but they, Kevin and the son, were both heteros!

great ending. great movie

waIT SO WHO KILLED HIM?
By: ccjohn. on 20 Nov 08, 23:05:45
That is the entire point. In the middle of total banality, there is such a thing as beauty. All the characters know they are estranged from something more. The kid next door is beginning to understand it, but in the end only Lester is gathered in by it. American Beauty is a satire of satires. Unlike irony it is not ultimately afraid of meaning. It is the greatest American film.

alan ball wrote this, simply amazing, he hasnt written for film since, only plays and television. did you know that he originally wrote it as a play but he decided to make it a movie - i wonder what it would be like as a play...
By: gregingram1970. on 19 Nov 08, 19:27:25
cliche? or an ecclectic mix of cinematic poetry? if you know movies, as i do, you will obviously be in the know that this is the best contemporary film to date. i prefer to view this film as 1)a critique of the american dream 2)do not be a victim of consumerism as it steals the real 'bits' of what a fulfilling life should. Its a unique film with unique performances. if ever there was a thought provoking film, its this.

I noticed that too
