Un barrio residencial en la América suburbana. Paul Gold (Joshua Jackson) es un joven que yace en coma en su habitación después de haber sufrido un grave accidente de coche. Su madre, Esther (Glenn Close) le cuida atentamente día y noche, lo que le distancia enormemente de su marido Howard (Robert Klein) y su hija adolescente Julie (Jessica Campbell). A dos pasos de allí vive Annette Jennings (Patricia Clarkson), una mujer que está pasando un momento muy complicado: vive un divorcio muy difícil. (Lauren Films)

The attempt to copy American Beauty is evident (perhaps sometimes unnecessarily so). And yet The Safety of Objects is more bizarre, simpler, and, above all, sadder. Of the actors, I would highlight Joshua Jackson, for whom I have a general weakness, and also Timothy Olyphant, who squeezed the absolute maximum out of his role.

An interesting collage of the life stories of four middle-class families from the suburbs of an American city. The highlight is the excellent cast with full-blooded performances, and especially Patricia Clarkson and Glenn Close deserve absolute recognition. These female characters are better written, and you can tell there's a woman's touch in the direction. At first, it was a bit difficult to decipher the abundance of characters and assign them to the right family, and one's orientation is also hindered by quick editing, which alternates between the characters and the setting, sometimes somewhat arbitrarily. The number of psychological problems and life mishaps of the characters is also a problem, as there is a certain purposefulness in the screenplay. On the other hand, several scenes and micro-stories have psychological power and reflect the crisis of the American middle-class today. Overall impression: 75%.
