  • The American Dream is a 1989 crime epic directed by George Deacon and written by Alan Flynn, and is the last part of the Story of America trilogy, serving as a sequel to Coming to America (1982) and An American's Story (1985). The film begins in 1970 and follows the adult lives of Alphonse Scariane's sons Vincent (Andy Garcia) and Paulie (Ray Liotta) in the 1970's until 1981, focusing on their moving of the family business from the Irish and Russian-dominated New York of the late 1960's to Las Vegas, where they become involved in the drug trade, butt heads with the established crime lords of the city and fall prey to the hedonistic culture of the Seventies. The film also starred Johnny Depp, Alec Baldwin, Curt Ellersby, Dustin Hoffman, Moira Lang, Joe Pesci, Al Davis, Willem Dafoe, Carl Hughes, Jane Seymour, Lucille Owen, and Beth Sears. The American Dream was critically lauded and was an enormous financial success, but in a much-maligned move failed to earn Best Picture (unlike its predecessors), although Deacon and Flynn both earned Oscars again, and Garcia won the Oscar for Best Actor. It was the last film written by the legendary Flynn, who passed away in June of 1990 after a fifty-year career in Hollywood.
