Plot Summary
Following 24 characters through 5 days in the country music capital, Robert Altman's 1975 epic presents a complexly textured portrayal (and critique) of American obsessions with celebrity and power. Among the various stars, aspirants, hangers-on, observers, and media folk are politically ambitious country icon Haven Hamilton (Henry Gibson) and his fragile star protegée Barbara Jean (Ronee Blakley); Tom (Keith Carradine), a self-absorbed rock star who woos lonely married gospel singer Linnea Reese (Lily Tomlin); Sueleen Gay (Gwen Welles), a talentless waitress painfully humiliated at her first singing gig; Albuquerque (Barbara Harris), a runaway wife with dreams of stardom; nightclub owner Lady Pearl (Barbara Baxley), who reminisces about "those Kennedy boys"; single-minded groupie L.A. Joan (Shelley Duvall); vapid BBC commentator Opal (Geraldine Chaplin); and campaign guru John Triplette (Michael Murphy), who is trying to organize a concert rally for the unseen but always heard populist presidential candidate-cum-demagogue Hal Phillip Walker. Everything comes to a head during a climactic concert at Nashville's replica of the Parthenon temple, as the entertainment-hungry audience is momentarily woken out of its stupor by unexpected violence, only to be lulled into a restorative sing-along to "It Don't Worry Me."
剧情简介
　　美国独立二百周年之际，精心筹备竞选活动的总统候选人，穿插其中的社会名流，借机扬名的乡村歌手，疯狂追捧的歌迷，冷眼旁观的BBC记者……各色人物你方唱罢我登场。在盛大的晚会上，女明星被刺杀使整部电影达到了最高潮。“你可以说，我不自由，但我并不为此而担忧”——在片尾冷漠的歌声中，镜头迅速地掠过场下喧嚣的人群，在那些呆滞或扭曲的面孔背后，是已被大众文化腐蚀而失去独立意识的空洞灵魂。
　　擅长处理群戏的罗伯特•奥尔特曼以其出色的调度与控制力，在“喋喋不休”的对白与“混乱无序”的场景中，精确地描绘了越战阴影下美国芸芸众生的人情性态，并深刻揭示出普世欢腾气氛下的美国社会精神危机。本片获得奥斯卡最佳电影与最佳导演等提名，堪称美国70年代电影代表佳作
