This paper attempts to examine its genuine stand in the time of Globalization. Although Hollywood plays a part in globalization, it propagates the American popular culture overseas under the concept of Americanization. Starting from the 20th century the American movie industry witnessed a global rise and initiated the spread of the American culture abroad.

Consequently, Hollywood's global success shows how Americanization takes effect in foreign countries.enAmerican cultureAmerican mediaOther
