Abstract: American Beauty was the biggest winner of the 1999 Awards of the Movie Academy of America. It is the engagement with a host of controversial contemporary issues concerning the concept of masculinity in a post-feminist and post-industrial society. This paper tries to analyze “beauty” in the film. With the analysis of the material selection, the structure, the cinematography, and the symbol in it, this paper tries to discover the beauty in the movie. The movie stems from the most noble and honorable motives, which attempt to fulfill the ancient dictum that fiction should instruct as well as entertain, and which also help us to recognize a social issue that we might otherwise overlook. American Beauty shows much more than we can imagine. By learning from it, we know how to seek and appreciate the beauty of the life besides the drama.
Key Words: American Beauty; understanding of beauty; crisis
