Just read the wiki synopsis for the novel Revolutionary Road. Sounds like more whining about suburban conformity and boredom. What do the characters aspire to? Bourgeois fantasies of fleeing to a better life in Old Europe. (Not, for example, an embrace of an agrarian lifestyle, much less a religious conversion. Does the author show an awareness why Europe is attractive? Tradition, culture?) The novel apparently received, and continues to receive, a lot of praise and acclaim -- because of a shallow endorsement of its rejection of '50s suburban life and homogeneity?

Why would I want to waste time on the movie?
