Beautiful

Rating: 10/10 (23 November 2000)

American Beauty is a great movie about beauty. Everything you see in this movie is beautiful, even those which seem ugly. Kevin Spacy acts Lester character delicately and beautifully. The script is so powerful containing great dialogues mixed with remarkable scenes. Some scenes are unforgettable. for instance, the scene in which Ricky shows the most beautiful thing he had ever filmed. This scene is so touching. In fact, the whole movie is touching. I felt every characters in the movie. And at last, the name of the movie is some kind of a metaphor. Because American Beauty is the name of the variety of hybrid rose.(according to Webster Dictionary) Spielberg has found a new talent again(Sam Mendes) and of course Sam has done a great job for his movie directing debut. The film deserved to gain 100 oscars instead of one for best picture. Thanks to Alan Ball and all who were involved in making this special and beautiful movie.
