Review of Revolutionary Road (2008) by Dalem — 01 Feb 2009

Can people really find their authentic selves? Are communication and love possible or are people doomed to live in their own little ego-shells? The two characters in this film struggle with these questions.

Not a happy movie, but pretty true to the soul of its subject matter. Most people simply won't like this movie because they prefer not to deal with these hard existential matters. I don't think anyone involved in the making of this movie was out to win a popularity contest.
