Revolutionary Road Clip
We’re giving you the chance to watch one more clip from the Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio-starring drama “Revolutionary Road”.
Based on the celebrated novel by Richard Yates, director Sam Mendes‘ “Revolutionary Road” is the story of a young couple (Oscar nominees DiCaprio and Winslet) trying to find fulfillment in an age of conformity (mid-1950s). Trapped in a world of encoded convention, they dream without faith, as lies and self-deceptions build to explosive consequences.
Directed by Sam Mendes (Academy Award winner “American Beauty“), from a screenplay by Justin Haythe, “Revolutionary Road” stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet and features an accomplished supporting cast including Academy Award winner Kathy Bates, Kathryn Hahn, Michael Shannon and David Harbour.
DiCaprio’s Revolutionary Road Photos
Adapted from Richard Yates‘ (1926-1992) first novel, “Revolutionary Road” is an incisive portrait of an American marriage seen through the eyes of Frank (three-time Academy Award nominee Leonardo DiCaprio) and April (five-time Academy Award nominee Kate Winslet) Wheeler. Yates’ story of 1950’s America poses a question that has been reverberating through modern relationships ever since: can two people break away from the ordinary without breaking apart?

Frank and April have always seen themselves as special, different, ready and willing to live their lives based on higher ideals. So, as soon as they move into their new house on “Revolutionary Road,” they proudly declare their independence from the suburban inertia that surrounds them and determine never to be trapped by the social confines of their era.
Yet for all their charm, beauty and irreverence, the Wheelers find themselves becoming exactly what they didn’t expect: a good man with a routine job whose nerve has gone missing; a less-than-happy homemaker starving for fulfillment and passion; an American family with lost dreams, like any other.
