No, it's about as American as you can find. A story about Italian immigrants.

For me, it would have to be...

And I guess Starship Troopers (again with Verhoeven predicting the future).

If we talk about ancient America --- The Good The Bad The Ugly

If I see modern America --- Crash (2004)

I must say... despite America is a country full of immigrants apart from its cool natives; America has given everybody their share what they deserve

I love the cool American attitude towards people, society and the whole world.
God Bless America

Now you can only select one movie (I know we could all make a list).

I would probably pick something like a Roland Emmerich Film or one with a soundtrack done by James Horner...

Whatever, I'll select APOLLO 13.

By the way, I'm Canadian

.

Apollo 13 is a good one.

I'd probably also say Dave.

Us Americans believe that all our politicians are crooks and jerks and some guy off the street that runs a temp agency would do a better job.

Does anyone else get a kick out of The Patriot, a very America centered movie, starring two Australian men?

HorrorBlu · 02-14-2013, 06:08 PM

Teen Witch. Maybe Modern Girls.

surfdude12 · 02-14-2013, 06:10 PM

Saving Private Ryan

American Graffiti, though not as relevant today, still quintessential for the time. Would be great to be able to go back to those times.
