The Museum Children and Youth Cinema Club “Real Cinema” has Resumed Its Work

On May, 8, on the eve of Victory Day, the cinema hall of the Excursion-Exhibition Centre “The People’s House” was visited by the students of the Teacher Training College of Vyoshenskaya. The young people saw a wide two-part artistic and journalistic film “Ordinary Fascism” by Mikhail Romm. The film had come out in the USSR, in 1965, by the 20^th anniversary of the Victory.

Many of the young viewers confessed to see the film for the first time. They experienced a real shock. The viewers were profoundly impressed by the text of M.Romm, the famous Soviet film-maker and screenwriter. The words heard at the beginning of the film were perceived as an appeal to the audience: “From the vast amount of material we have selected what seemed to us the most striking, what gives us an opportunity to reflect together with you…” Almost 40 years later this outstanding work has turned to be very topical and acute.

Following the film the students were asked to write a home essay “My Thoughts after the Film “Ordinary Fascism” by M.Romm” for the cinema club.
