Through a comparative approach of current theories developed on
ideology and an analysis of official documents from the Vatican and
the United States Department of State, the book investigates the
decisive role that American production companies played in the
development of the Italian film industry and their links to the
Vatican. This analysis evaluates how the Italian production and
distribution industries satisfied the American political and
economic interests. American political and cultural ideology of the
post-1945 era, is compared with the Roman Catholic ideology in
order to assess their cultural propaganda. This is followed by
studies of the roles played by key individuals, such as Giulio
Andreotti, and institutions such as ANICA and A.G.I.S. involved in
formulating the policies and regulations that affected the
production and distribution of American and Italian films in the
post-1945 era, as well as the involvement of the Roman Catholic
Church in this process.
