Summary
Lester
Burnham (Kevin Spacey) is suffering a mid-life crisis that affects
the lives of his family which is made up of his super bitch of a wife
Carolyn and rebelling daughter Jane who hates him. Carolyn is a real
estate agent a little too wrapped up in her job who takes on an affair
with business rival Buddy Kane. Meanwhile Jane seems to fall in love
with Ricky Fitts, the strange boy next door who is a drug dealer/documentarian
who lives under a roof governed by a very strict marine father and
a speechless mother. Lester's mid-life crisis causes him to drastically
change his life around when he quits his job and works at a fast food
restaurant. He starts working out to gain the attention of Angela,
a friend of Jane's who brags about her sexual exploits every weekend.
Lives change and not for the best.

Review
‘After
14 years working in the same office, Lester Burnham (Spacey) is about
to get canned. After two decades married to the same woman, he can't
stand her any more. Carolyn (Bening) is no more fond of him. And as
for their daughter, Jane (Birch), she's just dying from the embarrassment
of it all. And so the worm turns. Quitting his job, he takes stock
of what he's lost, and he begins to bench press, smoke pot and have
fun flirting with Jane's best friend, Angela. It might be madness,
but at least he can look himself in the mirror without cringing. The
best reviewed movie of 1999 (and winner of five Oscars) is a polished
and acerbic social satire with 'countercultural' tendencies. What
does Lester do but 'turn on, tune in, and drop out'? Admittedly, he's
not necessarily heroic; in fact, the real hero of the piece is his
neighbour's teenager, Ricky (Bentley), and the real villain is Ricky's
father (Cooper). Having established a recognisably droll, sardonic
voice in Spacey's narration, Alan Ball's screenplay tempers biting
wit with unexpected compassion for even the most obnoxious characters.
Director Mendes guides an artful path between desire and self-disgust,
playing youth against experience, male against female. It's a shade
too pat to be truly revelatory (and as a suspense film it's frankly
unconvincing), but it repeatedly transcends its apparent limitations
to insist, after Arthur Miller, 'attention must be paid'. ~ Review
