Far From Heaven

4/5 stars

This was the story of a society house wife in 1956 whose life, from the outside, looks picture perfect. Her husband makes a good living, and she has two beautiful children. Of course, life is not what it seems from the outside, and she finds that she has no one to talk to about her marital problems. She befriends a black gardener, who helps her to forget her troubles for an afternoon (not like that!), which puts her on the edge of a scandal.
