American Beauty

Okay I saw the movie again on cable tonight, and something came to my mind. There is something I can’t figure out. Okay see how towards the end the dad comes and kisses Kevin Spacey, now I was wondering if OR .

Did I make sense, did you guys get what Im trying to ask?

i've seen it.

bits of it didn't make much sense to me, its quite a good movie though..

Jane's Boyfriend Ricky's Dad was Gay himself.

Scene Clue: When Kevein Spacey gets drug from Ricky. They shot it in a way that led Ricky's Dad to know his Son was Gay. Apprently, he wasn't. Ricky's Dad was Gay himself, hated Gays, always felt disgusted himself.

............look closer..

That was a cool scene though hehe

American beauty...humm.... reminds me.....Thora Birch ....window....

nice pair....excellent acting by Kevin Spacey....

P.S: LM you little girl...stop watching such movies....at your age you should stick w/ Pokemon or Power puff girls!

Yeah, was a great film. Very entertaining.

here’s another question-

at the end is Annette Benning going to kill Kevin Spacey? Or is it you never know? Because then when she finds him dead, she goes to his closet and his clothes and is sobbing like she misses him

its such a sad movie :teary2:

No. Kevin Spacey got killed by the Father of Ricky. Annete Benning was about to kill her husband, as Kevein found out his wife affair with a guy.

Sad Movie, eh? It was a hilarious one! I’ve seen it maybe like 10 times. :smiley:

Okay so you say the dad was gay.
Now what if he wasn't gay and was just checking (when he kissz him) if Spacey was gay or not, and then he kills him at the end because he gets all furious that he kicked out his only son because of Spacey.

And then if the dad was gay himself, why didn't he kill himself instead of Spacey (poor dude wasn't even gay)

LM, Ricky's Dad killed Spacey because Kevin knew that he was Gay as he kissed him. Plus, Ricky and his mother don't know about Ricky's Dad being Gay.

As I said earlier, Ricky's Dad hated Gays. Remember, the scene when Kevin was jogging along with two Gay partners, and Ricky's Dad saw them, pointing them, look who's coming: Gay-Parade Party.

Ricky's Dad disgusted himself of being a Gay person; and doesn't want anyone to know that. Which is why he killed Kevin Spacey because he knew immediately as he kissed him, and the scene ended as Kevin Spacey said to Ricky's Dad: You got the wrong idea.

...........look closer.......

No, no, no! I know that Ricky's dad killed Kevin Spacey because of the whole gay issue. Its just that when she comes home with a gun, seems like she was gonna do it, then finds him dead, and then that whole scene where she goes and grabs his clothes and just starts sobbing. I think she was frustrated and wanted to kill him, but i don't think she would have done it. I guess thats the idea tho, you don't know if she would or not. But it looked like his death did hurt her in the end. Funny? Its so tragic and yet a good look at the idea that everything is not what it seems.

It wasn’t tragic at all. Well, maybe if you lived a life of Kevin, you won’t find it regretful. Kevin was upset with his 42 years of life because it wasn’t fun for him at all except the blonde cheerleader. Honestly, Kevin and Aneeth Benning haven’t had sex in a long time, pointed out by Jane’s Blonde friend. :hehe: :biggthumb:

look closer…

Its a great film.

:hehe: :hehe:

One of my fave movies.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh dude now it makes sense.
Man! I love that movie :D

it’s about taking things for granted and missing them when they aren’t there.

it wasn't all that and I wonder which lobby creates the hype that gets average movies huge official accolades..

That movie was really retarted, it didn't even make any sense. Waste of MONEY !
