Hmm, well for a long time you were number one every year, then I think in trumps first year of his first term you dropped down to 5th or 6th. This year I don't know exactly where the US is, but it isn't in the top ten any more. The greatest country in the world is now seen as being Japan, followed by Germany with Canada in third.

I was more just curious though how many other people had heard of it or watched it.

One of my favourite actors. RIP.

He was even good in Uncle Uwe Boll's otherwise dire FAR CRY.

Does anyone else here ever follow the Anholt Nation Brands Index (or even have heard of it)?

Nope, but having Googled it, I'd bet the USA doesn't rank too highly anymore.

I guess "lukewarm" is about right. You are in plentiful good company in your estimation of STALAG 17, clearly. I didn't hate it but I find myself curiously immune to Wilder's classic style. (I don't love SUNSET at all, either.) Maybe this is the same missing genome that keeps me from loving CASABLANCA and VERTIGO.  And as I mentioned I dislike M*A*S*H... Catch-22 the novel is one of my favorite books, though both adaptations are (good but) flawed.

You're not a fan of many of my favorites like STALAG 17, SUNSET BOULEVARD, CASABLANCA, and VERTIGO, but I still respect your opinion, somehow. Good trick!

Bonus tracks of the deluxe release. An entire concert that unfortunately has really bad bootleg sound quality.
