Audience Member A documentary that's as informative as it is entertaining! "Blue Gold" completely changed how I look at a pair of jeans and truly educated me on the people and process behind the manufacturing of every item of clothes we purchase today. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/14/25 Full Review Mark R Blue Gold: America Jeans is a poignant comprehensive journey into the world of denim and how this amazing fabric connects us all. Christian Bruun's masterful eye for visual storytelling not only brings us everyone who is everyone in jeans, but explores how the fabric is constantly reinvented by every subsequent generation. This movie shows how jeans are not just a slice of americana that has been imported and exported all over the world but it is an extension of the american dream and the american way of life. This movie is not to be missed. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/06/25 Full Review Ter W An excellent historical journey through the many faces of the iconic American blue jean. I found it fascinating and had no idea that the blue denim fashion statement came from such humble beginnings in the gold mines on the west coast of the United States. The film really drew me in with the detailed story, funny interviews, and following jeans hunter Eric Schrader around the world looking for blue gold. Thank you for a great documentary!

The fashion industry is very interesting, and this story has so much history on everyone's favourite pants. But this documentary is quite disjointed, and the story following the jeans dealer is uninteresting. Not the worst, but you could probably just read up on jeans instead.
