Pleasantville

While Pleasantville is an idyllic town in many ways, a place where everything is pleasant and no one is ever dissatisfied, its "pleasantness" is held together by repression. The citizens of the town are satisfied precisely because they repress any desire. No one in the town has sex, no one wonders about what is beyond the limits of Pleasantville, and the books are completely without words. As David and Jennifer integrate more into the Pleasantville community, they teach the citizens to let go of their repressive impulses and to access their true desires.
