Kevin Spacey plays Lester Burnham, a forty-something man who has coasted through the tedium of his life and the lack of respect shown to him both professionally and personally. For years he has played the part of happy families with his career driven wife and tennage daughter, both of whom see the man of the house as a doormat and to be treated as such. All this changes when the daughter's friend, played by Mena Suvari, catches his eye and a sudden spark of life is ignited within him, leading to a culmination of events and opportunities where Lester Burnham lives life for the first time. A classic film which was labelled as one of the best films of the year in 2000 by British press. This is clearly not a family film, and chances are some people will be offended by the references to sex and drugs in the film. Yet I would hope that people are not discouraged from giving this film an opportunity and sees it for what it is highlighting which is the notion that not everything is as what it appears to be on the surface. As the film tagline suggests "...look closer" at the intricate complexities of the characters and think about the story being told of one man and how his new outlook on life can make him realise what he was missing all along.Read full review
