Plot summary

How did America change from Easy Rider into Donald Trump? What became of the dreams and utopias of the 1960's and 1970's? What do the people who lived in that golden age think about it today? Did they really blow it? Shot in Cinemascope - from New Jersey to California - this melancholic and elegiac road-movie draws upon the portrait of a confused, complex and incandescent America one year after the start of the electoral campaign. That golden age has become its last romantic border and an inconsolable America is about to pull on a trigger called Trump.

There is one element of value in this

There is one element of value in this film to the future of American culture and political opinion for future generations. That valuable element is singular, and it is disheartening. America is headed for a dystopian disconnect between our leadership and the public unlike anything previously seen, and I do not state this light-heartedly. The beginning of the film uses interviews that make it a point to convince the viewer that we will never know a more divided time than that of the 60s and 70s. It hammers away at the fact that the drug use involved in the progressive movement of that time all but discredits it cimpletely. The fact that so many Americans that fall into the generational category of Baby Boomer find themselves settling for the greater of two evils is prevalent in this film, and the greater leans towards an angry, isolationist, "What is best for me and mine is best" point of view. America is viewed as a hotbed for anger, separatism amongst the public, and more divisive modes of thought by the rest of the world on a daily basis. These interviews only highlight and perpetuate this way of thinking in a very roundabout way that isn't subtle to everyone. Constantly criticizing artistic expression and empathy as a sign of weakness and devaluing American traditional culture. By giving a substantial voice to these divisive ways of approaching others different from ourselves. Take the interview of James Toback for example, as well as the subsequent interviews. These are the few voices of reason throughout this entire film. Thoughtful pursuit of new ideas, cultural expression, unity amongst men and women from all walks of life, all of these are becoming less and less important in light of supporting the false ideals of conservatism and preserving a "traditional" way of American life. I found this film doing very little fight for the cause it appears to support. If you support the powers at be in our current state, and the agenda they want to continue to push in the name of God knows what, this is the artisticly spun pseudo progressive art film for you. For those of us grounded in hope for a future without the biases and hate filled rhetoric of past generations, observe this film as a warning sign and a guide to the mindsets to avoid going forward. I am not a film critic or a movie buff, but I have seen enough subversive propaganda to understand the core values and purposes of this film. View with care, and know that the majority of the Americans interviewed were likely not aware of how their opinions and recounts would be portrayed.

I couldn't get through more than 20 minutes

I couldn't get through more than 20 minutes. Weird, still images of people, lots of landscapes of America and not much discussion about anything.
