Winn, J. Emmett. The American Dream and Contemporary Hollywood Cinema. Continuum. 2007.

Cloth, 176pp., NEW, J. Emmett Winn shows us that the American Dream’s continued glorification in contemporary Hollywood cinema should not be ignored. Through his thoughtful analysis of films as diverse as Working Girl, Titanic, Pretty Woman, Flashdance, The Firm, Good Will Hunting, Saturday Night Fever, Wall Street and many others, Winn shows that contemporary Hollywood is very much in the business of keeping the Dream alive.
