american beauty / the real world of carolin/ perfect dream

[stevenr1986]

Jonathan Archer is trying to buy a house? GET BACK TO THE FUCKING ENTERPRISE AND ENTERTAIN ME!

[Marcemath11]

I like men

[PedrotheWombat]

that scene where she loses it after failing to sell the house is absolutely unbelievable. sometimes you get to that point, and as much as i don't want to admit it, it hits close to home. the best performances remind us things about ourselves that we might not want to confront.

[kelseyanne08]

I truly hope I never turn out to be like her....this is exactly how my mom was before she left us.

[aaronmoores7]

Those two tracks overlapping at the end is beautifully haunting...

[jdale1259]

Another notable example of the best actress NOT winning the Oscar.

[cobrachoppergirl]

This movie showed the world better than anything... life in American, in a Western Style Democracy, totally sucks for everyone on so many levels. Its just one rotten empty hell and it keeps getting worse and worse.

[fabulousron]

Wow poor Carolin... Damn those people who don't even try. The poor Carolin did.

I was trying to put this clip into a power point presentation for a class project. It says that the embeding is deactived. I was wondering if you can enable it again asap so I can use it for my presentation on Carolyn? Thanks

[22TiredGirl22]

She's great actress. I love Annette Bening.

[SanDiegoSouth]

I love the scene where Carolyn gives life advice to Jane, talking about the only person you can count on is yourself, and how when she was growing up she lived in a duplex. ...Hilarious.

My Laura Bush question is directed at julesickdrums.

"IT'S JUST A FUCKING COUCH"

l0L!

[julesickdrums]

looks like barbara bush and i bet she cries too for having such a stupid husband

[teched246]

stupid??? he's the only character in the film besides the boy livning next door seeing truth and not living in bondage.

[julesickdrums]

I meant bush, kevin is cool.

[teched246]

whoops sorry :)

[SanDiegoSouth]

....I think you mean Laura Bush....?

[LaNoturna]

Man, I forgot how great of an actress she was in this movie.

[meredumais]

I so deeply identified with Lester during the near-reconciliation scene. IT'S JUST A FUCKING COUCH !!!

[montyfuzzy]

i have been looking for that scene! that part where she was crying! thank you so much!. i loved how after she cried, she walked away so much poise as if nothing happened.

definitely one of the few actresses that are really good. meryl streep and emma thompson are the other 2 for me. :O

What is the name of the piano track playing? I have a shorter techno version, but this is better.

[waderm810]

i work with women like this in real life, doing this actual job! they are as plastic as thiere nails, and always as tragic.

[Janybody17]

The sceen where she is crying, is the most moving, most revealing sceen that i have ever seen in any movie.

I love Annette Bening. such a wonderful actress!

[wana053]

omg and they excist in real life..these uptight closed-off sad people...they do.

[0dour]

oscar perfomance

[SirDanielMcLean]

I wish I had sound, cause then I'd comment on this video properly. And probably rate it, too!
