The Virgin Suicides (4K Restoration)

An adaptation of Jeffrey EUGENIDES’s highly acclaimed first novel, The Virgin Suicides conjures the ineffable melancholy of teenage longing and ennui in its story of the suicides of the five Lisbon sisters, stifled by the rules of their overprotective religious parents — as told through the collective memory of a group of men who were boys at the time and still yearn to understand what happened. Evoking its 1970s suburban setting through ethereal cinematography by Ed LACHMANand an atmospheric score by Air, and featuring a magnetic performance by Kirsten DUNST, the film secured a place in the landscape of American independent cinema and has become a coming-of-age touchstone.
