"In 1971, filmmakers chronicled the daily lives of one American family. They made television history"--Container.
Special features: 1973 panel discussion with anthropologist Margaret Mead about the significance of An American Family on modern culture; Seven bonus interviews looking back on the program and its impact.
On January 11, 1973, Americans stepped into the home of the Loud family of Santa Barbara, California. Chronicling the lives of its family members, the series made them household names. During the seven months that they lived in front of the camera, viewers watched dramatic life events unfold, including Pat asking for a separation from her husband Bill, and the bohemian New York lifestyle of their gay son, Lance. A 2-hour compilation of the most memorable and compelling moments of the series.
