#15: Lester Burnham – American Beauty
We might dream of being successful in our careers and having a great family life when we grew up, but, sadly, some people ended up like Lester Burnham, Kevin Spacey’s character in American Beauty. Lester was unfulfilled professionally, had a materialistic wife who was cheating on him, and was in the midst of a full-blown mid-life crisis. He was even infatuated with his teenage daughter’s best friend. He was totally not living the American dream.
