Seeking to rebuild the Russian film industry after its
post-Soviet collapse, directors and producers sparked a revival of
nationalist and patriotic sentiment by applying Hollywood
techniques to themes drawn from Russian history. Unsettled by the
government s move toward market capitalism, Russians embraced these
historical blockbusters, packing the American-style multiplexes
that sprouted across the country. Stephen M. Norris examines the
connections among cinema, politics, economics, history, and
patriotism in the creation of "blockbuster history" the adaptation
of an American cinematic style to Russian historical epics."
