There's a line near the end of the film that struck me as particularly clever: In Moscow, we fight for a crumb of freedom! Here, you s*** on it! It really can't be said any better than that, and the movie is filled with moments that illustrate what makes America such a great, rich, and sometimes frightening experience, and what makes freedom such an important, and sometimes dangerous, concept.
We should all be Thankful The abundance of food we have I worked in a Restaurant years ago Amazing how much food gets thrown away I remember years ago when little kid complaining about certain things on my plate Dad would say Kids would kill ya for that in some countrys I ate it Lol
This is so true! I remember reading an article years ago about Martina Navratilova in Sports Illustrated. She defected from communist Czechoslovakia. She said that communism would collapse if everyone in eastern n Europe could see pictures of a typical American supermarket.
