Just a reminder or for those who weren't already aware, there is a list of ~~all~~ many of the movies that are known to have had direct US military (DoD, CIA) involvement ("script approval") after a series of FOIA requests. A number of people have done this, but to my knowledge the first and most well known is the list made first in 2014 and then updated in 2016 by the person who runs the spyculture.com website: https://www.spyculture.com/updated-complete-list-of-dod-films/
As letterboxd puts it:
The list has been acknowledged and reproduced on imdb and wkipedia though it is well known to be incomplete. The original author noted discrepancies between the information they got in 2014 and 2016, like films that appear on the first list but not the second and vice versa, and discrepancies with others who have done the FOIA thing. This alone makes it clear that the list is not complete and probably represents only a portion of the interference that these agencies are willing to admit to.
Still, it makes for a great resource when talking to people who might be reluctant to recognize the amount of pro-US empire propaganda that saturates our entertainment media.
