Dinner in America is a 2020 American coming of age dark comedy film written, directed, and edited by Adam Carter Rehmeier. It stars Kyle Gallner, Emily Skeggs, Griffin Gluck, Pat Healy, Mary Lynn Rajskub, David Yow, Hannah Marks, Nick Chinlund, and Lea Thompson. The plot follows a punk rock singer (Gallner) on the run and a young woman (Skeggs) obsessed with his band who unexpectedly cross paths.

The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on January 24, 2020, earning critical acclaim for its energy and the performances of the leads. After struggling to find distribution, it was self-released in the United States on May 27, 2022. In 2024, the film developed a cult following after being rediscovered and gaining popularity on TikTok, leading to a second theatrical run.
