American Dreamz
American Dreamz is a 2006 comedyparody film that satirizes both American politics and popular entertainment.
On the morning after his reelection, US President Joseph Staton Dennis Quaid decides to read the newspaper for the first time in four years. This starts him down a slippery slope. He begins reading obsessively, reexamining his blackandwhite view of the world in a more grayseeming way, and holing up in his bedroom in his pajamas. Frightened by the Presidents apparent nervous breakdown, his Chief of Staff Willem Dafoe pushes him back into the spotlight, booking him as a guest judge on the television ratings juggernaut and the Presidents personal favorite, the weekly talent show American Dreamz, a show similar in format to the modernday American Idol. America cannot seem to get enough of American Dreamz, hosted by selfaggrandizing, selfloathing Martin Tweed Hugh Grant, ever on the lookout for the next instacelebrity. His latest crop of hopefuls includes Sally Kendoo Mandy Moore, a conniving steel magnolia with a devoted, dopey veteran boyfriend William Williams Chris Klein, and Omer Obeidi Sam Golzari.Because Omers mother died in the Middle East in an American attack, he joined a group of jihadists. He was an actor in an instruction film for terrorists, but he was too clumsy, and his interest in show tunes was frowned upon. Therefore, he was sent to the U.S. to await further instructions, but the leaders expected they could not use him. He moved to Southern California to live with his extended family there, including his effeminate cousin Iqbal Tony Yalda and Shazzy Noureen DeWulf. Iqbal hoped to be selected to participate in American Dreamz, but in a misunderstanding, Omer was selected instead. Iqbal becomes angered by this at first but later agrees to help Omer win and makes himself his manager. ........
