THE VIRGIN SUICIDES
Special Features: 25th Anniversary
Sofia Coppola's feature debut, adapted from Jeffrey Eugenides' acclaimed novel, follows the sad dissolution of a religiously devout family in 1970s Grosse Pointe, Michigan. Following the suicide of their 13-year-old daughter, the authoritarian Lisbon parents (James Woods and Kathleen Turner) circle the wagons around their four surviving teenage daughters, pulling them out of high school and limiting their social contact with the outside world. But the ensuing claustrophobia and isolation only ensure that things will get worse. The fine cast includes Kirsten Dunst, Josh Hartnett, A. J. Cook, Scott Glenn and Giovanni Ribisi.
