This chapter looks at the cultural environment in which the CPSU legacy flourishes. Specifically, it focuses on Soviet movies and their perception by Russian society. It shows that Soviet cinematography still enjoys very high popularity in Russia (to a larger extent than modern Russian movies or even foreign movies) and describes how Soviet movies (directly or indirectly) create a favorable environment for the persistence of the legacies of the Communist past. It also briefly looks at how the Communist era is discussed in modern Russian cinema and how it reuses the concepts and ideas of Soviet cinematography.
