| - Coming to America is a 1982 American feature film directed by George Deacon and based on the first part of Carlio Brunzi's 1973 novel An Immigrant's Tale. Coming to America was released to universal critical acclaim and went on to become the first film to win every Academy Award it was nominated for, sweeping all nine categories, including Best Picture, Best Director (Deacon), Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Score, Best Actor (James Woods) and Best Supporting Actor (Alfred Wexler). The film launched the careers of numerous actors who appeared in it and spawned two sequels, An American's Story (1985) andThe American Dream (1989), both of which went on to rake in a number of awards themselves. They are part of a trilogy referred to as The Story of America, which is considered the best film series ever shot, and the films typified the "Hollywood Renaissance" of the 1980's.
