This social issue has been present for hundreds of years; the standard belief that one must be ‘pretty’ to be accepted in society. Through the past decades we can see a trend in this.

The theme of beauty‚ and specifically American beauty‚ emerges through all of the main characters in the movie. The American Beauty could be the sultry teen Angela‚ the epitome of blonde American sex appeal.
