| | Posted: | | | | Wouldn't the Falkland Islands or French Guiana be more in South America than Mexico? How about one of the Central American countries? Panama is more South American than Mexico... I guess the Alaskan part of the USA is in Asia these days...  | | | If it wasn't for bad taste, I wouldn't have no taste at all.

I guess the Alaskan part of the USA is in Asia these days... Are we going to debate geography? Or are we going to play this game? |

Had the list been about Latin America rather than South America, Mexico would be an acceptable answer. There are 14 nations in South America, and while I cannot find a film placed in French Guiana, I know of two short films set in the Falklands, giving us an easy 13 without resorting to an entirely different continent. | | | If it wasn't for bad taste, I wouldn't have no taste at all.

The Falklands are a British oversea territory, not an officially recognised country. Given the current game is about South American country's. Should we abandon reality and pretended that it is a country? |

Part of "The Boys From Brazil" takes place in Paraguay. Partially set in Paraguay should be enough to conclude this list. I will also offer two films set in fictional South American countries: "Bananas" and "Moon over Parador." |
