Description
This comparative survey of cinema's vital role in disseminating Cold War ideologies focuses on ten films-five American and five Soviet-that in both obvious and subtle ways provided a crucial outlet for the global "debate" between democratic and communist ideologies. For each nation, the authors outline industry leaders, structure, audiences, politics, and international reach, and explore the varied relationships linking each film industry to its respective government.
