The thesis seeks to trace the development of the process of & / #8216 / reflection as reality& / #8217 / through a politico-historical analysis of the intimacies between the United States
governments and Hollywood cinema during the Cold War. The working assumption
while projecting this study is as follows / the Hollywood cinema and the United
States governments enjoyed a close relationship during the period in question. The
latter actively involved in the inscription of the wills and desires of US Foreign
policymakers into the American popular culture. The thesis will also extend the
discussion to a politic cultural assessment of how the United States, through the
films, represents and re-presents its superiority, and more importantly, how these
films affect and shape the spectators perceptions about its foreign policy.
