With reference to eight classic American movies, this text explores the political ideologies thrumming through the American psyche during the Cold War period.
Reelpolitik II moves past typical left-right political distinctions to examine political ideologies cycling through U.S. history during the ''50s and ''60s. These eight Cold War movies especially equipped the moviegoer with a unique vantage point to scrutinize the arms race, the Red Scare, the Korean Conflict, and the Vietnam War. They also helped audiences to observe the way film functions as a purveyor of American mythology, a megaphone to shout political messages, a metaphorical route to the emotions, a flattering mirror, an unflattering microscope, and a magic carpet ride back to the future.
