You are certainly right Rick when it comes to modern literature, where the American literature is unique enough to stand on its great own.

In the field of movie art unfortunately it appears that the American movie makers used to enjoy early lead, only to let the Hollywood mentality to take over shortly after the WWII. At that time the Great Bifurcation took place, whereupon our guys here concentrated on making more and more obsenely ridiculous Cleopatra's, while overseas the gentle folks like De Sica and Bergman continued they endless study of the human nature.

This of course is somewhat simplystic and only covers the main trends, as there has been overlap on both sides.
