Performances in American Beauty That Have Stood the Test of Time
Kevin Spacey: No
Annette Bening: No
Thora Birch: Yes
Wes Bentley: No
Mena Suvari: No
Chris Cooper: Yes
Allison Janney: Yes
Peter Gallagher: Maybe
Book group discussion points:
1) Is this, as my roommate claims, a "pre-9/11" movie? Would this still be made today?
2) Why is Jane Burnham friends with Angela Hayes if she's so mean to everyone and has seemingly no redeeming qualities?
3) Is Jane saving for a breast reduction or augmentation?
4) Is an eighth of an ounce of weed that costs two thousand dollars "worth it" if you're just a guy with nothing to lose?

I enjoyed this post. Good day, sir or madam.
Sorry, I'm trying to make my public comments more vague and unspecific.
1) i wish another American Beauty would get made already
2) good point, and how the hell did Janey get on the cheerleading squad in the first place?
3) My guess is a lift/ enlargement
4) no way is there such a thing as an eighth of weed that costs 2 G that's worth it, no matter WHO you are!
was this a pre-columbine movie? i think it still could get made today but it wouldn't work right now with the housing burst (houses/mortgages/property/real estate a huge theme)
and, take back that annette benning statement, love her.
also just noticed "Thora Bitch" - ahem or what??
