Fantastic film. A real gem. I get the feeling that I will mostly likely be saying “welcome to my top 100 list Pleasantville” very soon..

It's a beautiful story and craft that work together to give us one of the best film to come out of the 90's.

Maguire's character is a "Pleasantville" trivia expert so he knows everyone there and everything that's going to happen but sis Witherspoon is a stranger in a strange land whose introduction of 1990's sensibilities to the citizens of this town brings about extraordinary change.
