Harrison Carter MacWhite: Quote for September 17, 2009

Deong: You always make dictators strong then wonder why you are not loved.

Deong, I don't approve of dictators, any more than you do, but if supporting dictators helps to keep the free world free, we'll support them.

-- Harrison Carter MacWhite

from: The Ugly American (1963)

Marlon Brando acted as Harrison Carter MacWhite

Eiji Okada appears in this clip acting as Deong.

Does the term "free world" have the same meaning today as when this film was made in 1963?
