Abstract
It is true that a very fine line exists between the world of movies and the reality of U.S. foreign policy. This line is often blurred, especially in films that depict the President of the United States or members of the foreign policy elite, making policy toward another country. The last seven country case study chapters have examined in detail the historical relationship of the United States with each of the Rogue States and their portrayal in Hollywood film. Some significant findings have emerged through this examination and these findings will be drawn together in this final chapter, where the trends and themes that have emerged will be analyzed and discussed in detail.
