Reminds me of the old Robin Williams movie, Moscow on the Hudson.
It was about a defector from the Soviet Union, Williams, making a new life in everyday America.
In one scene his character nearly has a nervous breakdown while attempting to grocery shop. Just the amount of food in so many different brand names was too much for him to handle.
It drew a very different picture from one of the earliest scenes back in the USSR. He had been standing in line for an item only to be told he would have to make do with something else as the advertised item was sold out.

Overall a pretty good movie, if I remember correctly.

Best line of the film: “You don’t have to thank me... you have to pay me.”

I’ve used that in every interview ever since!
