What was the point of this movie?
fags will ruin everything
when the world is in ruins and a single flower suddenly emerges, signaling a new age and hope as life still has the power to triumph over evil, a fag will come over and step on it
It predicted the sudden rise of the public encouragement and tolerance of young celebrity actresses and musicians being touted as sex symbols.
Kevin Spacey was proto /tv/
idk. but it made me feel something.

Showing the dark side of the typical "happy" american family. The Dad is depressed and sexually repressed, the wife cheats even though she knows the only man who ever loved her is the husband, the military man has been emotionally stunted by his past war experience, the kids are rebellious and hate their parents, the whore girl is actually a virgin. This is the point of the film. People put on masks and act a certain way to make up for their shortcomings. The sports car, the newsman lover, pot, homophobia, even typical teenage angst and promiscuity. It's sort of like Blue Velvet but with more mainstream appeal.

highlighting the pain, sorrow, and ultimately consequences of living life that isn't true to your inner-most desires.
Or it could be self-discovery. Spacey discovers he wants to fuck young teens, but also realizes he's too kind hearted to actually go through with it. Gay father realizes he's a homo so takes it out on his son. Teen girl in picture realizes she only wanted a father figure, actual love and not Daddy sex. etc.

It's been over ten years since I saw it, but I guess it would be about muh mid-life crisis like the anon above me said already.
Basically the main character and her wife have become so accustomed to each other and take everything for granted all the passion and life has left them. They are droning day after day repeating the same shit and nothing ever changes.

No, it's just writers with dysfunctional families projecting their insecurity.
people just don't want to get old and when they do they wish they were young again
Life sucks after being 17

Kevin Spacey is a cuck who pussied out of fucking some prime jailbait
>>71843803
He read that line from some magazine and wanted to try out that pretentious line if he could score with it.
And it worked.

Some people are old at 20, some are young at 80.
>>71843573
None. It's empty.
It's not necessarily bad though.
All he had to do was let CASE do his thing.
>>71843573

To show that Kevin Spacey is a paedophile as well as homosexual.

>>71846965

American Beauty is about adults (kevin spacey, at least) trying to recreate their childhood. The movie is actually a remake of Lolita.
