Zusammenfassung:66 Scenes from America (1981): The film is a personal subjective impression, acutely sensed and perceived. The approach has been to register whatever exercises a fascination and place it in a surprising context. In Jørgen Leth's own words: "A documentary about the USA today. It embraces major and minor impressions, events, things, people, thoughts and feelings. It is a collection of pictures of a country which in many ways is strange and incomprehensible to us, but in which we nevertheless recognize a reflection of our own culture, and to which our dreams - whether we want them to or not - must bear a relation."

New Scenes from America (2002): Jørgen Leth's personal, poetic view of America, shot in New York, Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, and California in September 2001. Jørgen Leth and his cameraman Dan Holmberg decided to make a follow-up to their own classic "66 Scenes from America" (1981), particularly famous for the scene in which Andy Warhol eats a hamburger.They wanted to portray the mythological America, the endless highways, the gas stations, the diners, the motels, the cities. The people in the film include cult figures like the poet John Ashbery, the composer John Cale, the actor Dennis Hopper, and the photographer Robert Frank. The latter's book from the 1950s, "The Americans", and the paintings of Edward Hopper inspired Leth and Holmberg, who filmed in the same tableau-like style as for their first film, with no camera movements. John Cale wrote the original score for the film. [www.docreview.pl]
