Revolutionary Road
We all know director Sam Mendes has the Oscar chops, having won the coveted prize with his excellent American Beauty. His latest, set in the 1950s, is the story of a young couple (Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, Mendes’ real-life love) trying to find fulfillment in an age of conformity, in which their entrapment eventually leads to explosive consequences. Think Far From Heaven, but only better. It’ll also be nice to see DiCaprio and Winslet together again -- with a lot less ice.
