| | | Married in America Theatrical Release (Not Yet Available on DVD) | In this documentary directed by Michael Apted (GORILLAS IN THE MIST), nine soon-to-be-married American couples discuss their relationships, their decision to get married, and what marriage means to them. Each couple answers basic questions ... Full Descriptionabout how they met, how long they dated before they got engaged, what they do for a living, and which person in the relationship is more ambitious with his or her career. The answers to these questions reveal the challenges that they face, each of which is specific to their values, race, geographical location, financial situation, and family. Apted chooses a broad cross-section of America, treating several interracial marriages and exploring the familial approvals or disappointments that these pairings evoke. In addition, he looks at couples who are in different stages of their lives, some in their early 20s who were high school sweethearts, others who met in their early 30s once they were already living independently with established lives and careers. One young man has two children from previous relationships and marries a 21-year-old woman who agrees to be a mother to both. Another couple enters Weight Watchers together, convinced that their primary challenge will be controlling their eating habits. Across the board, MARRIED IN AMERICA presents interesting, compelling issues, conveyed with honesty and genuine hope by the couples interviewed. Combining straightforward interviews with footage of the couples on dates, spending time with their families, primping for the wedding, and at the actual ceremony, this film provides fascinating perspective on the cultural phenomenon of marriage in 21st Century America.
