This movie explains in a very clear way the idea of the end of the american empire. To begin with the film uses a very simple argument. They say that the U.S represents an Empire and so one of the main characteristics of empire is the fact that they have an end. So if the U.S is really an empire, The American Empire, it will collapse sooner or later. Also, as a matter of fact, the collapses of the empires are characterized by having a period of chaos and disaster before its end. If we continue to connect these clues and acknowledging that the end of the Twentieth Century was an absolute period of "chaos" and "parties" and liberal ideas.
To be conscious about this information is very important because it could even stop the ending the American Empire, and our way of living. As Napoleon Bonaparte once said "He who does not know history is doomed to repeat it." And if eventually the end of this Empire arrives it will bring with it a whole new and different way to live. I believe that at the beginning, the change will not be very big and outstanding, at least here at Colombia, but afterwards the change will be huge. The whole political and economical system will be reformed.
