Historic Film Treaty between US and Italy

TORONTO – Just over two weeks ago, Donald Trump declared on his Truth Social account that he wanted to “make movies in America again”, adding that “the movie industry in America is dying a very fast death”. He emphatically hammered his point home with his trademark Trumpian hyperbole, declaring that other countries are concertedly luring American filmmakers and their talent away from the United States. They’re doing this with higher tax incentives of course, and according to Trump, it’s a threat to national security.
