The 1920 s and 1930 s were eras of great affluence and Hunt does a good job at exopnrilg the pros and cons of such a shift in values.  Hunt states that, Self-gratification became the new touchstone for the good life, in place of thrift, social virtue, or religious morality.    This was achieved through the pursuit of attaining material goods where this consumerism pattern (cars, furniture, and fashion) was soon exported around the world through the means of Hollywood films.  I particularly found the example that Hunt used to exemplify his point of the Italians of Southern Italy very interesting. During the 1930 s, Italians became so consumed to American culture through films, that they knew more about New York than Rome.  This lead to the image of the United States being a country of dreams and fairy tales where anything was possible.  As Hunt characterizes these films as acting,  silent salesmen of American goods.  I found this very intriguing as I did not know films at this time were so influential in exporting American culture to the world.
