This has to be one of the best films this year! Kevin Spacey and Annette Bening portray a couple in a midlife crisis - a story that ends in disaster. Alan Ball wrote a fabulous script and literally tailored the character of Lester Burnham for Spacey. Hilarious moments are guaranteed when Lester takes a liking to Mena Suvari, the best friend of his daughter. The whole film is a masterpiece, juggling between a laughing and a crying eye throughout and especially the young stars are captivating - maybe because of gorgeous Menas effort. Go and see it if you haven't and you will like me still be laughing about some elements of the film.
