Sofia Coppola's haunting meditation on adolescence and alienation, The Virgin Suicides is adapted from the same novel by Jeffrey Eugenides. It is an ode to the tragic lives of five sisters in a most banal, suburban American context. With Kirsten Dunst's stellar performance and Sofia Coppola's sublime direction, it captures all of the ethereal, melancholic atmospherics leading her straight to critical acclaim. Her success continued with Lost in Translation (2003), cementing her place as one of cinema's foremost directors.
