Revolutionary Road
Two dreamers are forced to face the reality of their complacent lives. This movie is about the possibility of there being more to life. Unhappy in their picture pefect american dream, it is not their dream. Husband and wife team of Frank and April Wheeler are uninspired with the routine of raising two young children and the monotony of suburbia. April pushes for what was once Franks dream of returning to Paris to live the life they were meant to live. She begs him to drop everything including selling the house to pay for this fairytale and leave the job where he has just been promoted. To leave this life, no one but they can understand. This is a story of the painful desire to not settle on the life dealt and the hope for something greater.
