A lot of Beauty in the World

Rating: 8/10 (15 October 2019)

I find this film particularly striking as it shows us a sad reality about society and how it influences us, not only in our behaviors but also in our thoughts and attitudes. In addition, the characterization of its characters within what is understood as a dysfunctional American family is very good. It's a good movie, it teaches us that not always what we want is what really makes us happy, that there are many feelings behind appearances and that if we don't take control of our lives we can end up in a big void. Basically "American Beauty" reminds us that there is a true beauty and meaning available in life that makes everything worthwhile. Recommended for those who enjoy a good movie with a message.
