a sentence in a movie

There’s a sentence in the movie, A Good Year; it’s this: “We’ll just have to make sure our buyers don’t know anything about wine. We’ll concentrate on the Americans.” If you saw the movie, did you laugh when you heard it? I wanted to retract what I wrote about wine and my lack of knowledge. Are we really the low ones on the totem pole when it comes to producing a great wine? Do we not take our vineyards as seriously as say, who are those people? Let me think a minute. Ah, yes, -the French? Or is it the Italians, or all those other countries with their bottles of wine on the shelves in American liquor stores, with their sometimes elegant, whimisical, simple, or silly lables. Do we need more catching-up time? Or was that sentence put in the movie to get back at an American? A joke, perhaps? Yes, that must be it. Right?
