Sincere thanks.  Yes, I checked, and your suggested movies are exactly what I was looking for.  Believe me, I have been blessed with all Iranians in the US, though I hear otherwise.

 Many thanks SimorghFive janam.  I will check them.

These days’ wealthy people have an option of customization of healthcare, with all decisions and practices being tailored to their individuals as patients in whatever ways possible.  An example might be that their genes are sequenced and a medication based on that individual need is synthesized.

I am positive that at least there are some science fiction movies had predicted this, and I am looking for the name of one of those movies.

I am looking for a hollywood movie that predicts/relates the presence of one specific drug for each single person or something similar.  Something that demonstrates so called "personalized medicine".

That would be very kind and helpful of you if you could introduce one.

Pathetic gringos!

Why is it that Anglo-Americans and all Orientalist morons do their best to sexualize every situation they encounter with the "orientals"? The iranian woman is clearly portrayed as a promiscuous slut, there to serve their needs "in more ways than one" and the iranian man who is dirty, fat, and a slimy savage serving their food is there for the same purpose. And since he is a dirty savage, the female would prefer the civilized white christian man who is gentle, intelligent, secular, and of course, handsome. The process of racialzation and gendering is quite clear. Without these inferior beings, these two white men (colonialists in general) cannot exist. Their entire physical, epistemic, and psychological existence and their pathetic confidence and self-esteem is based on what the "other" (their iranian, african, indian subjects) is not, and in turn, what he/she is made to be.

Who is the "Iranian desert" in the clip? Is that Elke Sommer? If she is then she passes off as an Iranian very well!

Ian Ogilvy in this clip later went to replace Roger Moore in The New Follow Up to the Saint:

Return of the Saint opening


Return Of The Saint car action

He was at one point seriously considered to succeed Moore as James Bond one of which  The Man with the Golden Gun (1974)  was initially intended to be shot in Iran but then shot in Asia instead.
