Le rêve américain ne cesse de devenir plus cher.
Les instantanés saisis par Lauren Greenfield en marge de l’empire américain dressent le portrait d’une culture matérialiste obsédée par les apparences. Entre voyage personnel et essai historique, le film montre le cycle de prospérité et de récession que subit l’économie mondiale, de la corruption du rêve américain et des coûts humains qu’engendrent capitalisme débridé, narcissisme et cupidité.

I was expecting it more strict, but over all a good to watch documentary.
Wow. Just finished watching. I luvd it. I thought I knew a lot about this and that lavish lifestyle... But lots of surprising stuff in there. I especially liked the style. It's a "love" project (or maybe "obsessive"?😁), spanning many years (over a decade?), and there are interconnected stories, and when you realize that, it's kinda mindblowing. And it's not only America. She featured different places, interesting people with important stories. (btw there's nudity and drugs, but no violence). The wrap-up was so good. And pleasantly surprised she went to the Philippines (my country)... where "generation poor" 👅 is the norm. I wonder what project she has with it? // I also luv that the filmmaker herself, Lauren, is one of the subjects. As for the rating of 67%? I don't understand how it's so low. Maybe people didn't understand, got confused with some parts in it. I can see that. It can get confusing if we don't make the effort to understand the flow and the people involved. There were a lot of characters :') Admittedly I almost stopped halfway, not because it was bad, but because I was "trained" to have instant gratification due to Internet/social media exposure. (I don't know if it's ADHD, and I refuse to psychologically self-diagnose myself...) But I decided to sit through it, watch it to completion. I'm glad I did. Now I'm more enlightened because of it.
