Revolutionary Road DVD coverNominated for three Academy Awards and four Golden Globes, the emotionally gripping film has been called “amazing” (Peter Travers, Rolling Stone), “flawless” (Rex Reed, New York Observer) and a “masterpiece” (Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle). Directed by Oscar winner Sam Mendes (American Beauty) and adapted from the groundbreaking novel by Richard Yates, Revolutionary Road won Kate Winslet her first Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture – Drama. Reuniting DiCaprio and Winslet for the first time on screen since Titanic, the incisive portrait of a 1950s American marriage unfolds as an enthralling drama that is moving, thought-provoking and “a revelation” (Clay Smith, The Insider).

The Revolutionary Road DVD and Blu-ray presentations include commentary by director Sam Mendes and screenwriter Justin Haythe, Lives of Quiet Desperation: The Making of Revolutionary Road and deleted scenes. The Blu-ray also includes Richard Yates: The Wages of Truth.
