If you loved Safe, try Far from Heaven
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Todd Haynes, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Safe, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Far from Heaven is
A powder-blue 1957 Oldsmobile idles in a Connecticut driveway while the nachos are burning. Cathy Whitaker’s perfect life springs a leak when her husband’s affair goes postal and her gardener’s son gets set on fire by the PTA. Haynes re-stages Douglas Sirk in brighter hues to show that Eisenhower’s dream home was just a ranch with more plumbing problems.
