导演介绍：巴巴拉-库伯(1946)，是美国著名的记录片导演。曾因为观看美国著名记录片导演梅索斯兄弟的《推销员》被受感动而追随梅索斯兄弟拍摄记录片的巴巴拉-库伯，如今已是美国的知名记录片导演。并先后以《哈连郡》以及《美国梦》两部记录片获得两座奥斯卡金像奖。除此之外，她还指导了Wild Man Blues等多部记录片，以及一些故事影片 影片介绍：第六十三届奥斯卡金像奖最佳记录长片获奖影片《美国梦》。这是一部冷静且引人入胜的记录片。影片从社会、经济以及感情的角度描写了明尼苏达州工人罢工的风起云涌的变换,展现了当时人们的种种心态，还有工会和公司进行谈判的全过程。尽管影片描写的事件发生在1986年，但是其内容与当今一直存在于美国大公司中底层工人与高层管理者之间的矛盾主题以及贪欲与惟利是图的态度紧密相关。就像麦克摩尔的记录片《罗杰和我》所反映的通用公司的事件以及80年代“利益高于一切”的社会风气一样，《美国梦》是对纽约蓝领阶层生活的珍贵写照，这也是在华盛顿、洛杉矶或其他地方所无法得见的。
TITLE: American Dream
COUNTRY: USA
DATE: 1991
LENTH: 80min
DIRECTOR: Barbara Kopple
DIRECTOR: Barbara Kopple, is a famous documentary director who has a two Academy Award winning. She had completed many standout documentaries, such as Wild Man Blues( The film, which about the European tour of Woody Allen and his New Orleans-style jazz band, was selected by the National Board of Review and the Broadcast Critic’s Association as the Best Documentary of 1998.) ,Harlan County USA (The winner of the 1977 Academy Award for Best Feature Documentary. ) , American Dream .There were also some feature film directed by Ms. Kopple, including recently completed My Generation, Loving Kindness, Joe Glory. FILM: The Award-Winning Film of American Lives, American Courage and ”American Dream" is a sobering and fascinating documentary depicting the social, economic and emotional ramifications of a labor strike initiated by employees at a Hormel meatpacking plant in Austin, Minnesota. Although the film depicts events that take place in 1986, the content is every bit as relevant today on the subject of the perennial gap that exists between rank-and-file workers and top executives at major U.S. corporations, and the general greed and mercenary attitude that drives said corporations at the expense of hard-working employees. Like "Roger & Me," the acclaimed documentary by Michael Moore that savaged General Motors and the 80’s corporate ethos of "profits above everything else," "American Dream" is a priceless portrait of blue-collar work and life in New York, Washington D.C., Los Angeles or any other major metro area will probably never see.
