My History professor told us that "the books about wars are written by the winners". Maybe that has something to do with the movies. Hope it helps.

The same is true of movies from EVERY other country. It's just that you get exposed to more American movies than anything else.

Ever heard of Ira Hayes? He was a Pima Indian. If they haven't made a movie that at least mentioned him, they should have.

You know you got a point. Why are only Italians like Sylvester Stallone war heros? That's Hollywood for you.

Gunga Din
Glory
Victory
A soldiers Story
Men of Honor
The Tuskegee Airmen
Bataan
I could go on...but you get the point....Sure the majority may be "euro centric...but so is the majority of our our country and the point of a movie is to sell tickets.......

It's so they can prove that they're better. For example, in that movie with Hilary Swank, they're saying that it takes a white woman to save the minorities from the ghetto.
