Default Does America have their own cinematic icon?

Every country has their own cinematic icon, someone or something from a motion picture that accurately represents the country as a whole. For example:

UK has:

Japan has:

But the issue is that their film industries aren't as huge as Hollywood. We have a lot to choose from but not one we can call a definitive choice. I mean, you know, my personal pick would be Captain Kirk, I feel represents America at its best, his values, his sacrifices, his determination. Some would say Superman and I can see that being the case as well, given his colors and immigrant backstory. But we're not a monolith so I was wondering what do you guys think is the definitive American cinematic icon?
