An American Romance

Starring: Donlevy, Brian and Richards, Ann

Brian Donlevy goes from rags to riches in King Vidor's ambitious Technicolor ode to hard work, family and the American Dream. Arriving penniless in the United States, Czech immigrant Steve Dangos (Donlevy) soon realizes America truly is the land of opportunity. Starting out in the iron mines of Minnesota, Dangos heads to the steel mills of Chicago, a decision that will earn him wealth and power beyond his wildest dreams -- and put him at odds with his workers when they try to unionize. Produced over a two-year period at the then-enormous sum of $3 million, An American Romance is a bold and gripping saga in the Vidor tradition. "No other American director ever matched Vidor's sense of personal struggle, or the muscular poetry he found to express it" (Tony Rayns, Time Out Film Guide).
