Movies like Love Actually, The Quatermass Xperiment, Local Hero and The Secret Agent have delved into the storied “special relationship” between the US and UK. These films and many more are examined this first book-length study of British movies about America, revealing much about British attitudes regarding power, gender, class, sexuality and emotion.

As the British watched their empire crumble and the United States became the dominant world power, many British films warned of the dangers posed by American culture. Americans were frequently portrayed as disconcertingly ambitious, reckless and irreverent. Yet the same films that depicted the U.S. as an agent of chaos also suggested Britons might do well to embrace American-style energy and egalitarianism.
