I think it was more a dig at Hollywood.

It doesn't criticize America as much as it criticizes the inner workings of the entertainment industry (as symbolized by the director and the creepy and predatory agent) and the stuffy and hypocritical ways of certain segments of the upper classes, contrasted with the supposedly more liberating ways of American 60s counterculture.
When a stupid man is doing something he is ashamed of, he always declares that it is his duty. - George Bernard Shaw

???
What makes you think that it 'criticizes America'? Please elaborate.
To me, it
satirizes
a certain slice of American culture. No more than that.
