Review of Pleasantville (1998) by Lea L — 24 Dec 2008

Pleasantville - Nothing Is As Simple As Black And White..

A brother and sister from the 1990s are sucked into their television set and suddenly find themselves trapped in a "Leave it to Beaver" style 1950's television show, complete with loving parents, old fashioned values, and an overwhelming amount of innocence and naivete. Not sure how to get home, they integrate themselves into this "backwards" society and slowly bring some color to this black and white world. But as innocence fades, the two teens begin to wonder if their 90s outlook is really to be preferred..

An enjoyable movie.. Beautifully done..
