Desc: New American Movie: Directed by Nick Harvey. New American Movie is a video comprised of quick cuts and places/events such as the Taste of Chicago food festival, a Miami Beach nightclub, New York tourist spots, a sex-exposition, hippy concerts, and other spectacles across America. Drawn from over 50 hours of high definition video footage shot between 2008-2010, the movie seeks to draw relationships between the various events and people documented in order to convey the dual nature of mass consumerism and general consumption evident in American society. Relationships are suggested though match cuts, movement between shots, and recorded dialogue in order to force a more intense analysis of the world we live in by showing the beauty and tragedy of spectacle, appetites, and consumption pushed up against each other.
