Revolutionary Road
Desperately undervalued on its cinema release this is a thoughtful, immaculately crafted adaptation of the revered Richard Yates novel.
Leonardo DiCaprio gives one of the best performances of his career as a suburban husband trying to live the American Dream in the leafy Connecticut of the Fifties.
Kate Winslet is his wife in a tale of bitter disappointment and betrayal as the dream turns sour.
VERDICT 4/5
