Maybe Americans should choose a film shot in their State of birth or residence, since American films are so popular.

@NYVKE Yes, I thought so, your advice is good if those from America include states, it seems to be so.

We've had a similar poll before: 

If One Movie Could Introduce Your Country

But it's quite old and there are many new poll board members, so it's probably OK to make another one.

Also, please make your introduction text clearer.

I assume you mean for us to nominate our favorite movie from our home country?

In that case, it's a bit different to Khaled's poll.

@Jessica Yes, I mean a movie in someone's place of origin, which is his favorite. Ok I will revise it again.

So what's your favorite movie in your home country?

For those born in America I recommend using the state.

I don't watch a lot of Swedish movies, and don't really have a favorite. But I think the best one is Män som hatar kvinnor (2009), so I guess that will be my nomination.

Canada - Les ordres (1974)

I chose to exclude co-productions, and English speaking-films since those are almost always produced in collaboration with the USA.

You really saw it? I am surprised. I did not know the film was distributed outside Canada.

I think he means he saw "Country of Origin: Canada" on the movie's IMDb page. not the film itself.

Definitely this one!

Makes it even better that Scorsese named it one of his favorite documentaries. One of the best musical docs, a sort of Moroccan "Woodstock" that never fails to connect me back to my roots....

Wait??

Description:

IMDb users who are from America, please list the state, for their favorite movies, in the comments.

If we're from the US? Do we have to pick a movie that's filmed or situated from our state of birth?

The situation of the location of your state, which you live in and you think the state is your home. Because as far as I know, most American films are usually produced from studios based in California (Hollywood).

That's wildly not true and hasn't been for many decades.
