American Dream

Champagne, expensive cars and a lot of valuable bags - "Hollywood Wives" meet their American dream. The TVN station program, although is certainly not the most valuable, in some pleasant way distracts us from Polish everyday life and can be simply casual and slightly naive entertainment. "Hollywood wives" take us to Hollywood itself, which is where the greatest stars have wonderful residences with pools, women have separate rooms for handbags and shoes, and the teeth of all residents shine more than the lost pearls of Princess Daisy. The protagonists of the new show are Polish women who years ago went to the United States to fulfill their American dream. Today, after passing failures and successes, they are wealthy and confident. Although they do not complain about the comfort of living and their financial and social position is stable, they are looking for new challenges and experiences in various spheres of life, love or work. In the program, we obse...

Hollywood had long been inspiring immigrants to come to the U.S. with images that filled them with overstated optimism about what they'd find here. There are also some polish women immigrants which succeeded and they are well-known among Hollywood stars. Since the era of silent cinema, Polish actresses have been present in the American film industry. Some of them have become recognized performers in the US, with stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Some are presently trying to make it big in the dream factory. 1.   Pola Negri   One of the great stars of silent cinema. Negri, who was born in 1897 as Apolonia Chałupiec, started her acting career in Warsaw and moved on to make films in Berlin. At the age of 25, after making a name for herself in Europe, she went to the US, where she starred in such silent movies as Forbidden Paradise and Hotel Imperial. She became a major star whose femme-fatale image was fuelled by st...

The primary concept is that people come to the United States for a better life and come to Hollywood to become stars, rich and popular. This is a dream lit by the perpetual sunshine of Southern California, steeped in the values of the immigrant filmmakers who moved there in the early 1900s and got enormously rich. Hollywood's not called a dream factory for nothing. It manufactures optimism, and in the process of selling it, can make the possibility of success feel wondrously real. The concept is shown in many movies, and there are some examples: “The Godfather, Part II” (1974) Francis Ford Coppola’s epic sequel to “The Godfather” shows how Don Corleone came to America from Sicily, orphaned, penniless and hungry, and built his criminal empire. It also shows how difficult such empires are to maintain as well as the toll it takes on his family. “Superman” (1978) Kal-el — who can only be described as a young, orphaned and undocumented immigrant — is sent to Ea...

Not only the directors are inspired by the American Dream but also the singers.

The term was coined by writer and historian James Truslow Adams in his best-selling 1931 book "Epic of America."  He described it as "that dream of a land in which life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement." He went on to explain, "It is a difficult dream for the European upper classes to interpret adequately, and too many of us ourselves have grown weary and mistrustful of it. It is not a dream of motor cars and high wages merely, but a dream of social order in which each man and each woman shall be able to attain to the fullest stature of which they are innately capable, and be recognized by others for what they are, regardless of the fortuitous circumstances of birth or position."The American Dream also offers the promise that the circumstances of someone's birth – including whether they were born as American citizens or immigrants – do not completely determine their ...

The American Dream is the belief that anyone, regardless of where they were born or what class they were born into, can attain their own version of success in a society where upward mobility is possible for everyone. The American Dream is achieved through sacrifice, risk-taking, and hard work, not by chance.
