Some things just capture stereotypes too well...
Just watching the old movie Ice Station Zebra. One of the characters (a
british agent I believe) while speaking to the US Sub Captain describes how
the Russians (who hijacked a british camera system and its american made film)
were using "Our camera made by our German scientists, loaded with your film
made by your German Scientists, on the satellite built by their German
scientists...".
I love it. Some of those old movies had the best lines ever.
