Nashville, Robert Altman's 1975 masterpiece

Nashville, TN

Released in 1975, "Nashville" was prescient in depicting the extent to which willful ignorance has had a particularly strong effect on the country in recent decades. It has many characters to illustrate different aspects of that theme. Willful ignorance is hardly one of America's more attractive or commendable traits, so perhaps the film should be considered an American Anti-icon in the way some narratives have anti-heroes.
