It assigns a movie for each state (although skipping DC). Some of them make you go hmmm:
Florida: Scarface? I would've gone with Wild Things.
Georgia: Deliverance? Unh-unh, the little-known gem (but guilty pleasure) The Night the Lights Went Out In Georgia. Yes, they made a movie out of it, starring Kristy McNichol, Dennis Quaid and Mark Hamill. No, it has really nothing to do with the song, except that both have shootin' and good ol' boys.
Missouri: REALLY unfair to stick them with Jesus Camp, especially if you reuse JC for another state. Should've gone with Meet Me in St. Louis.
Washington State: First Blood??? I thought that took place in upstate New York?
Vermont: What the hell is Super Troopers? How about--HELLO--White Christmas? "This is Vermont, New England's winter playground?"
Louisian: Never even heard of Southern Comfort. I'm going with The Big Easy.
South Carolina: Glory? Hmmm. I would've gone with one of the movies based on Pat Conroy's books, like The Great Santini or The Prince of Tides.
Florida: Scarface? I would've gone with Wild Things.

Be happy you don't know what Super Troopers is. That's 1.5 hrs I'm never getting back.
