ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The unique story of James Costos, Obama's ambassador to Spain. Welcome to dance floor diplomacy -James, they just called to ask if I wanted to decorate the White House. -Oh goodness, hang up the phone it must be a joke. -No, no. I think they're serious.

Reseñas: «¿Diplomacia innovadora? ¡Sí! Desde el comienzo de su mandato Costos proclamó que su papel como embajador sería el de emprendedor. En El amigo americano descubrirás cómo fue contagiando su espíritu transformador a todo el universo de su embajada.».- Eric Schmidt, presidente ejecutivo de Google «Costos retira el pesado velo diplomático y nos invita a recorrer el curioso viaje que lo llevó a ser el hombre de Obama en España. El amigo americano es el maravilloso retrato, íntimo y divertido, de un hombre que ama España desde el fondo de su corazón estadounidense.».- Gwyneth Paltrow «En El amigo americano , Costos usa todos los utensilios (algunos poco convencionales y bastante únicos) de su caja de herramientas para cumplir su distinguido, colorido y memorable mandato como embajador como nunca antes hemos visto en España.».- Jorge Moragas « El amigo americano demuestra de manera brillante la importancia de la diplomacia y del trabajo con nuestros aliados cercanos para resolver problemas globales mientras se construye una prospera embajada en Madrid.» .- Arianna Huffington, Fundadora del HuffPost y presidenta ejecutiva de Thrive Global
