Pleasantville

David Wagner was a child whose brain is still stuck in the 1950s. A classic sitcom from the 50s called “Pleasantville” is what he’s obsessed with. Pleasantville is an ordinary place. It is home to sane and straightforward people. David’s life and Jennifer’s irritable sister take an unexpected turn one evening when an eccentric technician hands them a remote that is supposed to be magical. Following a dispute between their siblings, the two inexplicably leap into “Pleasantville” after a brief argument. David and Jennifer now have to adjust to the 50s, which has a lot of suppressed desires and different social values. They must also find their way back home. –Kyle Perez
