In Reply to: It's common knowledge amoung sophisticated film lovers that American film makers simply don't know what they are doing. posted by Analog Scott on June 5, 2006 at 11:34:46:
I guess they wanted to say something along the "racism is bad" lines, just didn't know how.By comparisson, To Kill the Mockinbird DID know how to say it.
That makes it a classic.
American film makers don't need to be ashamed of themselves, as long as they don't try to speak an unfamiliar language. There are tons of Hollywood movies to love, things like It Happened One Night... and many others from that era, sparkling with great humor and not suffering from that "cuteness" syndrom.
