...superficial sense of security. The exterior goings-on of this “Pleasantville”-esque neighborhood renders its interior discord shocking. “Snow Angels,” while successful in its faithful representation of human relationships, suffers from some heavy-handed production choices that warp the bleak into the boring.

But sometimes science can be surprising, and in this case, all it took to accomplish a complex biological time warp was a handful of genes that suppress cells from dividing and maturing...
