	The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit
		The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit [Warner]
		The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit (1956) is something we don't get from our cinema-going experiences anymore; an analytic and methodical glimpse into the issues of family strain that either drive us to distraction or build our moral character.
		Yes, the ending is a rather matter-of-fact conclusion to the whole quandary, and in a manner befitting 50s sexual politics, but until then the story functions as something of a zeitgeist for honor, self-reliance and self-reflection in the every man that is sourly lacking in any of our contemporary representations of cinematic masculinity.

	filmcritic.com Movie Review: The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit
		You’ve heard of “the man in the gray flannel suit.” He’s the workaholic office drone who commutes into the city every day and struggles wearily to climb a daunting corporate ladder while dealing with petty office politics.
		In The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit, Gregory Peck plays Tom Rath, that quintessential ‘50s organization man, an archetypal tormented post-war striver and father of the baby boom who wonders if he’s making the right choices… or if he has the freedom to make any choices at all in his conformist world.
		The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit is far more valuable as documentation of very particular time and place in American society than it is as drama.

	The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit by Sloan Wilson \| PopMatters Book Review
		The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit was written by a man named Sloan Wilson in 1955.
		It is about a man named Tom Rath, a hapless office-drone, with a wife and kids to take care of, a car that's in its death throes, and a job with no chance of advancement.
		The book was (apparently) about a man in the business ranks of America struggling to climb the corporate ladder, doing whatever it takes to be a success.

		The 1955 bestseller is being reissued with a new introduction by Jonathan Franzen-and, indeed, the story of disappointed Westport, Conn., strivers Tom and Betsy Rath anticipates the novels of suburban anomie by Franzen and his contemporaries.
		Universally acclaimed when first published in 1955, The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit captured the mood of a generation.
		At once a searing indictment of corporate culture, a story of a young man confronting his past and future with honesty, and a testament to the enduring power of family, The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit is a deeply rewarding novel about the importance of taking responsibility for one’s own life.

		Tim O'Brien's best-selling 1994 novel "In the Lake of the Woods" has a narrative structure almost identical to that of "The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit." O'Brien's hero, John Wade, is present at a massacre of civilians in the Vietnamese village of Thuan Yen.
		In "The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit," Tom Rath works for Ralph Hopkins, who is the president of the United Broadcasting Company.
		This is the difference between our own era and the one of half a century ago--between "The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit" and "In the Lake of the Woods." Sloan Wilson's book came from a time and a culture that had the confidence and wisdom to understand this truth.

		Fifty years on, its chief value is as a cultural self-portrait, a detailed museum exhibit of 1950s WASP America from hat styles to platitudes.
		Gregory Peck plays Tom Rath, a decent family man tempted by the "rat race" toward becoming a "cheap, slippery yes-man" in a Madison Avenue PR office.
		Now ten years later, Tom in his suburban Westport, Conn. home is a stolid yet ambitionless family man with three kids, a busted refrigerator, and a status-conscious wife scraping at him to get the balls to move up the ladder and provide her with a bigger, better house.

		As the last line of human defense against another terrorist attack from above, members of Federal Air Marshal Service (FAMS) are supposed to “blend unnoticed into their environment.” Let’s assume that would be the coach section on a flight, say, from Baltimore to Detroit.
		But in a fashion statement that speaks volumes, the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees the new agency, insists that marshals always “present a professional image” in their high-altitude workplace, which means suit coats, ties and “I’m-a-cop” haircuts for male marshals; skirts and blouses for females.

		And just like all the other times a team has gone undefeated this deep into the season, we have to watch the graying remnants of the 1972 Dolphins (who finished 17-0) celebrate whenever the last undefeated team loses.

		Betsy was a conscientious household manager, and usually when she did something Tom didn't like, they talked the matter over with careful reasonableness.
		But on that particular night, Tom was tired and worried because he himself had just spent seventy dollars on a new suit he felt he needed to dress properly for his business, and at the climax of a heated argument, he picked up the vase and heaved it against the wall.

		When Brandon Teena, a young man with an infectious, aw-shucks grin and an angelic face that's all angles, wanders into Falls City, Nebraska, he takes to the town like it's a second skin.
		However, there are shadows looming over Brandon's life: a court date for grand theft auto, a checkered criminal record, and a seemingly innocuous speeding ticket that could prove to be his undoing.
		This fascinating story was based on real-life events (as documented in The Brandon Teena Story) that occurred in 1993 and ended in tragedy: Brandon's rape and murder by two of his supposed friends.

		Books like The Organization Man proposed the social evolution of the corporate cog of the 1950s, a new kind of man needed to fill the offices of those new steel towers in New York City.
		The loneliness of the executive who gives up his family to run a big business is presented as a fate to be avoided, and provides a positive ending to the tale that is the film's only oversimplification.
		The first silhouetted 'gray man' figure in the main title is very close to the left frame line.
