Geeky teenager David and his popular twin sister, Jennifer, get sucked into the black-and-white world of a 1950s TV sitcom called "Pleasantville," and find a world where everything is peachy keen all the time. But when Jennifer's modern attitude disrupts Pleasantville's peaceful but boring routine, she literally brings color into its life.

    Gen Z girls waking up to the Mary Sue character arc was not part of the original plan. Have another rice square.

    One of my favorite movies growing up. I used to watch this on reruns on TBS. Absolutely love this movie. 10/10 every time.

    A fun romp that's held up over the years. Makes you think.

    We love this movie. It's beautiful not only in film, but directing, storyline and visuals. Humans at an innocence pushed beyond change, responding in fear, ultimately embracing the change, except one, and growing. Lovely story paralleling current climate.

    A star studded cast but it just isn't climatic nor attention-grabbing. Sorry, Reese & Toby & Mr Macy & Bridges!

    Must be awfully lucky to see colours like that. I'll bet they don't know how lucky they are.
