THE AMERICAN DREAMER is a multi-faceted portrait of the life and mind of Dennis Hopper, one of the 20th century's great cinematic voices at the peak of his artistic and commercial success. Shifting between being an insightful document of a complex artist (considered one of the true "enfant terribles" of Hollywood) in the midst of his creative process and a self-reflective exploration and explosion of vérité filmmaking tropes, The American Dreamer is a mesmerizing journey into the private world of one of Hollywood's most hypnotic directors/stars.
