VIEW PDF: THE EVOLUTION OF THE MILICIER FILM GENRE IN COMMUNIST ROMANIA
In order to observe the manner in which the image of the Romanian militiaman is perpetuated throughout the movies produced during Nicolae Ceauşescu’s regime (1965-1989) we will analyze the most important detective films of that period. This will allow us to recognize a series of characterological and professional attributes present in the protagonists of these narratives which claimed to have come from reality. All of these heroes are shrewd, tenacious and well-intentioned because the official propaganda wanted to deliver a certain beautified image of the Romanian agent, about whom these films suggested having the mental and physical capabilities to be successful against any kind of villain and therefore being able to protect his country with a great sense of duty and commitment.
Keywords: Cultural politics, Film, Nicolae Ceauşescu, Communism, Espionage, Industry, Censorship, Propaganda.
