Not just censorship, but looking at what happened with Tarkovsky, being exiled for simply not returning to the USSR. I know Hollywood did the same at the time regarding film 'guidelines', I'm just curious if there's more context to the USSR's rather strict attitude with film? Or is this just western propaganda I'm swallowing?
Scholars and government officials were allowed to take a decidedly pro-American, pro-colonialist, pro-war, and pro-capitalist stance with what looked like zero repercussions in the run up to the collapse of the USSR.
