Description
"Achieving the American Dream became inextricably linked with career / business success after World War II, as an increasingly consumerist America learned to define the dream through possessions and state. Not surprisingly, Hollywood films in the postwar years reflected the country's preoccupation with work and career success, offering both dramatic and comedic visions of the career quest and its effects on personal fulfilment, family relations, women's roles, and the creation (or destruction) of just and caring communities." -- Back cover.
