The Bodil Award for Best Non-European Film was one of the categories for the Bodil Awards presented annually by the Danish Union of Film Critics (Danish: Filmedarbejderforeningen). The Bodil Awards were created in 1948 and are one of the oldest film prizes in Europe. This category was originally named "Best American Film" until 1961, when it became the "Best Non-European Film. In 2001, the name of the award changed back to "Best American Film.
The judging committee may choose not to present an award if there isn't a worthy film. Twice was the award not presented: In 1957, when American producers boycotted Denmark; and in 1964, when there were two Bodils awarded to European Films.
