Here is my favorite scene from the movie "Heaven and Earth" by Oliver Stone. It's really funny and true. In part 7 below, you can see how Oliver Stone portrays America to a new Vietnamese immigrant girl - as a country of excess, obesity, overeating, and superficiality. He exaggerates a little, but it is still on the mark. His portrayal of a typical American suburban family is very accurate too.
