[12:02.57]American Movies
[12:05.88]American Movies do not attempt to show the lives of all the people of the United States.
[12:12.58]Many movies contain some truth.
[12:15.99]But even a movie that deals with true subjects
[12:19.94]represents the ideas of the person who wrote it,
[12:23.58]the people who acted in it and the person who directed it.
[12:27.88]Over the years, some Americans have tried to ban some kinds of movies.
[12:34.49]These include movies that are violent or show people having sexual relations.
[12:40.21]People have taken legal action to stop such movies.
[12:44.74]But court decisions have said that the right to make any kind of movie
[12:49.86]is protected by the part of the United States Constitution
[12:54.03]that guarantees freedom of speech.
[12:57.27]In the United States, people have the right
[13:00.97]to produce a bad movie or write a bad book.
[13:05.25]People who make movies try to provide entertainment and excitement.
[13:11.08]However, entertainment and excitement often have nothing to do with the real world.
