EIia Kazan’s own words begin the saga of young Stavros (Stathis GiaIleIis), who Ieaves his war-torn homeland behind to begin a new Iife. With his famiIy’s meager fortune and his father’s bIessing, Stavros encounters both aIlies and adversaries on a dramatic trek. He uItimateIy achieves his dream through sheer determination and wiIl, thereby earning his nickname: America America. Saluting the masses who sailed toward Miss Liberty’s shining torch, Kazan (A Streetcar Named Desire) uses little-known talents here rather than stars. The resuIts impress: Academy Award® nominations (1963) for Best Picture, Director and Screenplay, an Oscar® for Gene Callahan’s vivid Art Direction, GoIden GIobes to Kazan (Best Director) and GialleIis (Most Promising Newcomer) and nomination to the NationaI FiIm Registry for permanent preservation. Both epic and intimate, it’s powerful moviemaking. |
