The photo of a teenage girl lying nearly naked on a bed of red rose petals was an iconic shot in the cult classic, Oscar-winning film American Beauty. It was a cultural watershed: a witty takedown of the American dream; a male midlife crisis and as one critic has put it a “suburban burlesque”. MENA SUVARI was only 19 when she was cast as the angelic looking cheerleader in American Beauty and also American Pie. For the next two decades she appeared to be America’s sweetheart, with a glamorous life to envy. But her recently released memoir A Great Peace shows us there is always more to a person and their story.
