But when Jennifer’s modern attitude disrupts Pleasantville’s peaceful but boring routine, she literally brings color into its life. ## Comments Hollywood hates everything you love most. I've heard this movie described as 'satanic'. I guess I can see why. It directly attacks rightist ideals in terms of a peaceful, orderly society versus a licentious, chaotic one. OTOH it is well made, and fairly entertaining in parts. I do feel it's worth seein once, but personally I'll never re-watch. We've seen how this goes. ## Details - [libremdb](https://farside.link/libremdb/title/tt0120789 "libremdb: A free & open source IMDb front-end") ／ [IMDb](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120789 "Internet Movie Database") - <https://letterboxd.com/film/pleasantville/> - <https://trakt.tv/movies/pleasantville-1998>
