Reply to What is the significance of the rose in the opening scene of "American Beauty"? by ActuallyWrite206

There are roses throughout the movie. Remember the scene when Scott Bakula compliments the roses in Annete Bening's garden. The roses represent hollow external beauty, materialism and status. Which is exactly what the middle class suburban characters are obsessed with.

Aside from Blonde, it was my least favorite movie of the year. I can understand why it is popular with young people. Fast pace editing, meme humor, representation and sentimentalism. It's like a mash up of TikTok, Reddit, video games, comic book movies, YA novels and anime.
