Happiness

Like a Norman Rockwell picture painted over a Hieronymus Bosch canvas, director Todd Solondz's ("Welcome to the Dollhouse") controversial, jet-black comedy peels back the lives of three suburban New Jersey sisters to reveal a variety of neuroses and crises, from career dissatisfaction and a neighbor's obscene phone calls to a "perfect" husband who's a pedophile. Jane Adams, Dylan Baker, Lara Flynn Boyle, Jared Harris, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Camryn Manheim, Cynthia Stevenson star. 139 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English. Region Free
