A bittersweet satire about Hollywood's bottomless capacity for corruption, Dreamers follows the travails of two friends who leave their small Tennessee town for Tinsletown. Opening with a view of Hollywood through the lens of an Asian tourist's video camera accompanied by the movie-loving tourist's ramblings, the film cuts to Jefferson City, Tennessee, where two boys indulge in fantasies of fleeing to L.A.

A good choice for film buffs; lends itself to analysis, conversation, or maybe even a term paper

This film is superb. It captures the feeling of innocence, youth, college days, foreign travel, studying abroad, sexual curiosity, and late 60s tension around the world, all culminating in the May of '68 riots in France. This is a very strong fairly recent art film. Anyone who is into art films to any extent should see this one for sure. Do it now!
