Full Plot Details

REQUIEM FOR THE AMERICAN DREAM is the definitive discourse with Noam Chomsky on the defining characteristic of our time - the deliberate concentration of wealth and power in the hands of a select few. Through interviews filmed over four years, Chomsky unpacks the principles that have brought us to the crossroads of historically unprecedented inequality - tracing a half century of policies designed to favor the most wealthy at the expense of the majority - while also looking back on his own life of activism and political participation. Profoundly personal and thought provoking, Chomsky provides penetrating insight into what may well be the lasting legacy of our time - the death of the middle class; a swan song for our democracy. A potent reminder that power ultimately rests in the hands of the governed, REQUIEM is required viewing for all who maintain hope in a shared stake in the future.

Movie Reviews

Movie Mezzanine - 10/10 by Mallory AndrewsIt's all important stuff, but if the intention is to galvanize a sleeping public, perhaps a less tedious piece of filmmaking would have done the trick.
Spirituality and Practice - 9/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatAn interview with Noam Chomsky that illuminates the sad and scary state of affairs in "Two Americas."
Toronto Star - 9/10 by Bruce DeMaraIt's a documentary that couldn't be more timely.
NOW Toronto - 8/10 by Susan G. ColeHere [Chomsky] crystallizes his ideas, using very plain language in ways every lefty should consider adopting: never strident, almost distressingly calm.
National Post - 8/10 by Chris KnightIt's a dire history lesson, but the speaker remains phlegmatic -- he's no Michael Moore -- and leaves viewers with the sense that something can still be done about it.
The Stranger (Seattle, WA) - 8/10 by Charles MudedeFor the most part, the ideas and insights that flow out of his mouth (so clear, so simple, so thoughtful) square with reality...
RogerEbert.com - 8/10 by Godfrey CheshireThe result is a film that feels less like a lecture than a provocative X-ray of current American political realities.
Common Sense Media - 6/10 by S. Jhoanna RobledoNoam Chomsky's theories of inequality are important but dry.
Globe and Mail - 5/10 by John SemleyAll the ideas presented in Requiem for the American Dream are lively enough. But for anyone who has been exposed to Chomsky's thinking or writing, it all feels a little rehashed.
User Review - 10/10 by Tanvir MGreat introduction to Chomsky's critique of the neoliberal paradigm, drawing from his interviews over four years. Articulated clearly in 10 points which explain the current concentration of wealth and inequality, and draws evidence from history and economics to tie issues around taxation, privatisation, role of media, power of the corporates and many others to present a coherent and convincing worldview. Essential viewing for any responsible citizen.
