USC is usually looked upon as the premiere school - especially in terms of networking possibilities afterwards. (And hey, the Lucas and Spielberg buildings don't hurt either.) UCLA and NYU are also prominent. Austin and Columbia are respectable.
All of those are expensive schools, but will provide you with solid training and good connections.
But you know, even the little New York Film Academy type places can just give you some training in the basics. From there, you just need to have the drive and resourcefulness to make it. You get to L.A. and start working your way up.
fro me High School Musical!!!
Ucla or Actor'studio...

You know what, if you have the money, go to film school in the states in either USC, UCLA or NYU. If you don't, I suggest reading. Look for a bunch of books to read on producing, directing or even writing for film. You'll be amazed with what you can find in books.
Start making short films. It's the best way to practice working a mini-production. Get some friends, have some fun shooting for a day or for the night. After a few shorts, try to move into feature films. A lot of books will tell you the different ways it can be done and there are many ways. Just get yourself out there and start studying and filming.
If you want a look at the business of hollywood films, take Dov Simens' 2 Day Film School. You'll learn the whole production process and learn how to make your first film.
