“What imprisons desires of the heart?”

In 1950s Connecticut, Cathy Whitaker (Julianne Moore) keeps a spotless suburban house and a husband everyone admires, Frank (Dennis Quaid). Then her marriage begins to come apart, and she finds an unlikely confidant in Raymond Deagan (Dennis Haysbert) while the town watches who she talks to. Todd Haynes uses the manners of that decade to show how much a polite community can refuse to say aloud.
