April Wheeler: So now I'm crazy because I don't love you, right? Is that the point?
Frank Wheeler: No! Wrong! You're not crazy, and you do love me. That's the point, April.
April Wheeler: But I don't. I hate you. You were just some boy who made me laugh at a party once, and now I loathe the sight of you. In fact, if you come any closer, if you touch me or anything, I think I'll scream.
Frank Wheeler: Oh, come on, stop this April.
[He touches her for an instant and she screams at the top of her lungs before walking away. He chases after her]
Frank Wheeler: Fuck you, April! Fuck you and all your hateful, goddamn…
[He breaks a chair against a wall]
April Wheeler: What are you going to do now? Are you going to hit me? To show me how much you love me?
Frank Wheeler: Don't worry, I can't be bothered! You're not worth the trouble it would take to hit you! You're not worth the powder it would take to blow you up. You are an empty, empty, hollow shell of a woman. I mean, what the hell are you doing in my house if you hate me so much? Why the hell are you married to me? What the hell are you doing carrying my child? I mean, why didn't you just get rid of it when you had the chance? Because listen to me, listen to me, I got news for you – I wish to God that you had!
Revolutionary Road är en gripande film som utforskar den amerikanska drömmen genom April och Frank Wheelers ögon, spelade av Kate Winslet och Leonardo DiCaprio. Med en stark berättelse om att försöka fly från det konventionella och finna lycka, är filmen fylld med minnesvärda citat och starka skådespelarprestationer. En ikonisk replik från filmen är ’Plötsligt inser man att man inte längre är den där unga personen som man en gång var.’ En film som verkligen stannar kvar i minnet och påverkar tittaren långt efter att den har sett den.
