Review of The Virgin Suicides (2000) by Arth J — 17 Apr 2018
Sofia Coppola's Magnum Opus.
Sofia Coppola's masterpiece of film. Her major film debut with Kirsten Dunst starring as the hypnotic girl next door Lux Lisbon. The profound sadness that is portrayed serves to enlighten the general public how even in well off middle class suburban kids can feel depression. It's so beautiful and relatable. I felt the the boys across the street in the movie just looking at the girl you love. Coppola captures young love, heartbreak, depression, affluence, apathy, and leads to suicide. It's one of the most heartfelt films I have ever seen and it remains one of my favorites. Dunst is remarkably empathetic and relatable and Coppola's lens loves her. Try to see this movie as I guarantee you will feel that same emptiness and depression that the characters endure. An indie classic.
