Why can’t I select a language for the movies that are suggested for me?

I am from a small rural area where 97% of the population is Caucasian and I would say about 99.5% of the population’s primary language is English. I, myself, can only speak and understand English.

Suggestion: better job credit prioritization (more credence to director, less to producer, less to writer)

Randall Miller, "Higher Grounds"

Randall Miller, Director of "Higher Grounds" was convicted in the death of crew member Sarah Jones. I'm not sure how he got this film made, but this title should be removed from IMDB.com and pressure should be brought to bear to make sure that it does not get distribution.
