FAR FROM HEAVEN (2002)

This delicate story is about a family caught between isms, phobias, and socio-economical status.  The family's predicament is compounded by the malevolent voice of fellow citizens and it brings about cruel actions of the uninvolved.  Julianne Moore and Dennis Quaid give their best performances ever as this story unfolds.  This is further supported by a truly superior script and direction.  It is one of those brilliant cinematic experiences you ponder for a long time after you have left the theater or turned of the TV.
