Welcome to 
Joseph Stalin, Film Star: The Cult of Personality on Soviet Screens
! Join us at 
The Levinsky Lecture Theatre
 for a fascinating exploration of how Stalin was portrayed in Soviet cinema. In the Soviet Union, cinema was a tool of the state. Or at least it was meant to be. Stalin took to heart Lenin’s assertion that “of all the arts, cinema is the most important for us,” and presided over the most intensive era of film censorship to that point in history. He also appeared on screen—not personally, but as a character in contemporary feature films, making him the first political leader to do so. Who exactly was this cinematic Stalin? And was he a success for a regime set on shaping audiences through film? This talk explores these questions and the audacious oddity that was Joseph Stalin, film star.
