Suburbicon

Suburbicon, a peaceful, family-centered, white utopia with friendly neighbors and manicured lawns, is experiencing simmering tension as the first African American family arrives in the community in the scorching summer 1959. However–as the young patriarch, Gardner Lodge, and his family start catching a few disturbing glimpses of the once-welcoming neighbourhood’s dark underbelly–seemingly random acts of unprecedented violence paired with a gruesome death will blemish, irreparably, Suburbicon’s picture-perfect facade. One would never have believed that even Paradise is dark. –Nick Riganas
