Mr Freedom

William Klein's Mr. Freedom (1969) is one of the most important American satirical films ever made, its primary topic being American culture. Tyler Sage argues that the film is less "anti-American" than part of a tradition as old as that of American arts and letters, one that uses satire to reflect on the excesses, foibles and dangers of the stories we tell ourselves.
