Well I can't think of any movies that are just about thanksgiving, but there are plenty of movies and tv shows where there's a scene or episode on these American holidays. All I'm saying is that it's a lot easier for us in Aus (or any other country for that matter) to understand US culture more than they understand ours. Unfortunate, yes, but it won't change.

This is sadly true, not to sound like a ignorant american but our media is in to much control over stuff! I have seen that, I respect other countries but we don't get to much info on others so its hard to know a lot! I try to read as much as I can but WW1 was not as big of a focus in my schooling as was WW 2, I rook a clas in High school just on that an then one in college as well! I though Australia used the pound but Iam greatful for the post this it was good reading about it on wiki!
