Review of The Virgin Suicides (2000) by Darrell H — 16 Oct 2011
Finally a film by Sofia Coppola that I can say I liked.... I admit its not as intense as I thought going in but at the same time it being summarized here as a "dark comedy" isn't very accurate either.... the first line of dialogue summarizes what follows pretty well:
Doctor: What are you doing here, honey? You're not even old enough to know how bad life gets.
Cecilia: Obviously, Doctor, you've never been a 13-year-old girl.
A great cast always helps too: James Woods, Danny Devito, Kirsten Dunst, Giovanni Ribisi (narrates throughout), Kathleen Turner, Scott Glenn & Josh Hartnett.... and for s*#ts and giggles, a young ass Hayden Christensen makes a 2 minute cameo...
