Having a problem w/films whose name starts with "American . . ."?!


Question:

Having a problem w/films whose name starts with "American . . ."?

Don't know if it's because they make us look like we're full of ourselves ("American Beauty"), or because the writers couldn't think of a better title ("American Dreamz"), or because many such productions prove gratuitous ("American Psycho"). Anyone else have a similar vibe?


Answers:

If you'll notice, a lot of the movies that start with "American..." actually criticize the United States. They poke fun at what is considered "American" ideals and values. American Beauty--definately not a movie about beauty, or is it? American History X--this is the history people don't talk about. American Dreamz--American Idol, how stupid can it be (need I say more?)

It's all about irony, the land of the free and the brave as a land actually of the not so brave who are slaves to good marketing.
