In Reply to: American Beauty what an overrated piece of garbage, what a hopeless peice of Hollywood trash! posted by Victor Khomenko on July 23, 2000 at 06:42:27:
I loved the movie. It ranks way up there in terms of the movies I've seen.I think you just didn't "get it". No offense, though. I noticed on Amazon that it is classified as a "dark comedy". When I saw that classification everything made sense--why I was guffawing loudly in the theater by myself, being hit in the shoulder by my date because nobody else was laughing.
I can explain better if you email me.
