All American High is a 1987 documentary film directed by Keva Rosenfeld that chronicles the life of the 1984 senior class at Torrance High School. The film is narrated by the Finnish exchange student “Rikki” Rauhala and observes 1980’s high school culture from a foreigner’s perspective. The film was selected for competition for the 1987 Sundance Film festival. The film was independently financed with additional funds provided through an AFI/National Endowment for the Arts grant. A new documentary called ''All American High Revisited'' combines the original film with new footage of the film's principal subjects being interviewed on their high school years, the process of growing up and the various paths in life that they took. == Critical reception == * “Keva Rosenfeld does a spectacular job of candidly capturing the life of typical suburban teens. It is true. It is hilarious. It’s a little frightening. This is one wonderfully entertaining documentary.” - People Magazine * LA Times, Patrick Goldstein called it a “topsy-turvy blend of the innocent and the exotic.” “Startling...” and added, “rarely intrusive and never condescending.” * Hollywood Reporter, Duane Byrge: “Fascinating, insightful, and highly entertaining.“Every bit as piercing as Fredrick Wiseman’s classic portrait “High School.” * New York Times, Vincent Canby: “If Keva Rosenfeld’s vividly satiric “All American High” is to be believed, this country is headed for hell on a surfboard...” * LA Times, Sheila Benson: “The most cheerfully terrifying movie I think I’ve ever seen.” 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「All American High」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
