> Definitely "Pleasantville." It didn't make much of a sensation at the box office or when it became available for rent or purchase, but I thought it was a brilliant movie. I went into the theater with low expectations, but then sat in awestruck amazement through the second half of the movie. The symbolism was refreshingly deep compared to most movies, and the statements made about stereotyping and racism were brilliant. Some people will be put off by the questionable morals in the film, but the movie goes so much deeper.

I agree! It was an unexpected enjoyment. I didn't see it until it was out on video, but a very clever film.
