Who are you? What do you want? What do you love doing? None of that matters. What matters is how you sell things. Mad Men is produced by Matthew Weiner, a producer and writer on The Sopranos. Set in the 1960s, it focuses on the era in which the American Dream took shape and then shattered, boldly depicting the brutal business competition of the golden age of American advertising. The second season of Mad Men ends with the full outbreak of the Cold War, completely shattering the middle class's dream of retreating safely into its own corner. Judging from the trailer, the third season should also move toward a more desperate and pessimistic phase. It is not hard to see a man falling in the opening credits, whether as a metaphor for the life of the show's protagonist or for the fall of the American Dream in the 1960s.
