The Virgin Suicides (1999)

Director: Sofia Coppola
Writers:  Jeffrey Eugenides, Sofia Coppola
Cast:      James Woods, Kathleen Turner, Kirsten Dunst, Josh Hartnett

A group of male friends become obsessed with a group of mysterious sisters who are sheltered by their strict, religious parents after one of them commits suicide.

The film is an adaptation of the novel with the same name. I felt the film should have concentrated more on the boys leaving the girls even more mysterious. It looked more like a bitching about the bad parenting without fully exploring the fascination from the side of the boys.

Rating: 2.5/5
