Merry Christmas: The 30 Best Movies of the 21st Century

Hollywood and Media Bias:

Alternative Film List:
- Cruz presents his own list of 30 films from the past 25 years that he believes are more representative of quality cinema.
- His selections include:
  - Gladiator, The Patriot, A Beautiful Mind, Lord of the Rings, Saving Private Ryan, American Sniper, Hidden Figures, Top Gun: Maverick, and Avatar.
- He emphasizes true stories, war films, musicals, and movies with strong moral or patriotic themes.
Personal Movie Preferences:
- Cruz shares his favorite films (The Princess Bride, The Godfather, Scarface, Fletch), and discusses his love for musicals and classic comedies.
- He recounts personal anecdotes, including taking his mother to Broadway shows and watching Saving Private Ryan and Dallas Buyers Club.
Cultural Commentary:
- The conversation touches on broader cultural issues, such as the disconnect between Hollywood and everyday Americans, the importance of storytelling, and the role of cinema in shaping public perception.
