영화 정보

A dark comedy punctuated by moments of drama, The Virgin Suicides explores the emotional underpinnings of a family starting to come apart at the seams in 1970's Midwestern America. The Lisbons seem like an ordinary enough family; Father (James Woods) teaches math at a high school in Michigan, Mother (Kathleen Turner) has a strong religious faith, and they have five teenage daughters, ranging from 13-year-old Cecilia (Hannah Hall) to 17-year-old Therese (Leslie Hayman). However, the Lisbon family's sense of normalcy is shattered when Cecilia falls into a deep depression and attempts suicide. The family is shaken and Mother and Father seek the advice of psychiatrist Dr. Hornicker (Danny DeVito), who suggests the girls should be allowed to socialize more with boys. However, boys soon become a serious problem for Cecilia's sister Lux (Kirsten Dunst). Lux has attracted the eye of a high-school Romeo named Trip (Josh Hartnett), who assures Father of his good intentions. But Cecilia finally makes good on her decision to kill herself, throwing the Lisbons into a panic; and after attending a school dance, Trip seduces and then abandons Lux. The Lisbons pull their daughters out of school, as an emotionally frayed Mother keeps close watch over them. Meanwhile, Lux continues to attract the attentions of the local boys, and she responds with a series of clandestine sexual episodes with random partners as often as she can sneak out of the house. The debut feature from Sofia Coppola (whose father, Francis Ford Coppola, co-produced this film), The Virgin Suicides also features supporting performances from Scott Glenn and Giovanni Ribisi. The film was shown as part of the Directors Fortnight series as the 1999 Cannes Film Festival.

This movie was retarded. Terrible. Freaky. These girls kill themselves because they are virgins. That's it. You will waste 2 hours of your life watching these parents be hard on their kids, watch under age kids drink and smoke, see the youngest one kill herself, and then these horny little teenage girls want the d so bad, but don't get it.. All except one. On a football field.. They fall asleep there and then the guy wakes up and leaves, she gets so depressed and then all these little girls kill themselves.

It's an okay movie, really dark (obviously), but I probably wouldn't watch it again. I only watched it because I like Air (love the OST). But LOL at Josh Hartnett being a total jock mcdudebro.

The person who says this is about the girls dying because they're -"virgins "-I had to laugh . No. That's not why. Their parents are claustrophobic and don't let them live. And the atmosphere is pretty cool. I liked it. I liked the bling ring too. Sophia coppola.
