The Myth of the Good Italian in the Italian Cinema
ISSN 2039-2117 (online) Mediterranean Journal of Social Sciences Vol 5 No 16 ISSN 2039-9340 (print) MCSER Publishing, Rome-Italy July 2014 The Myth of the Good Italian in the Italian Cinema Sanja Bogojević Faculty of Philosophy, University of Montenegro Doi:10.5901/mjss.2014.v5n16p675 Abstract In this paper we analyze the phenomenon called the “myth of the good Italian” in the Italian cinema, especially in the first three decades of after-war period. Thanks to the recent success of films such as Tarantino’s Inglorious Basterds or Academy Award- winning Benigni’s film La vita è bella and Spielberg’s Schindler’s List it is commonly believed that the Holocaust is a very frequent and popular theme. Nevertheless, this statement is only partly true, especially when it comes to Italian cinema. Soon after the atrocities of the WWII Italian cinema became one of the most prominent and influential thanks to its national film movement, neorealism, characterized by stories set amongst the poor and famished postwar Italy, celebrating the fight for freedom under the banners of Resistance and representing a nation opposed to the Fascist and Nazi regime. Interestingly, these films, in spite of their very important social engagement, didn’t even mention the Holocaust or its victims and it wasn’t until the 1960’s that Italian cinema focused on representing and telling this horrific stories. Nevertheless, these films represented Italians as innocent and incapable of committing cruel acts. The responsibility is usually transferred to the Germans as typically cold and sadistic, absolving Italians of their individual and national guilt.

CZECH CINEMA: NEW WAVE and BEYOND Coordinators: Robert
CZECH CINEMA: NEW WAVE AND BEYOND Coordinators: Robert Gerace and Eva Vogel We survey films from the Czech cinema after WW II, beginning with the German and Soviet Occupations, continuing with the Czech New Wave and the Prague Spring of the 1960’s, and ending with more contemporary films of the modern era. Our materials on Czech and Slovak history and culture provide a framework and context for critical evaluation. We ask which policies and attitudes of the prevailing Soviet and German authorities are satirized in these films? How do the directors attempt to bypass strict censorship of this veiled government criticism? We come to understand the importance of the Czech film industry and how it reflected the historic struggles and aspirations of the citizens of Bohemia and Slovakia. Readings and other Required Materials: Subscription to Netflix is required. Class handouts and Web references will be provided. They include film reviews, director biographies and articles on Czech and Slovak history and culture. Robert has coordinated study groups on Greenwich Village Writers, Italian Neo Realism, and French New Wave Cinema. Eva is an enthusiast of Czech and Slovak films that reflect her family’s experience of the WWII German occupation and her own life during the Soviet occupations after 1968. * * * * * * * * Syllabus * * * * * * * * After viewing the films at home we consider assigned questions about theme, character development, cinematography and director’s style. We evaluate our answers as we view and discuss film clips of the highlights shown in class. Students are encouraged to submit their own questions for class discussion. Assigned background readings include: "Prague Spring: Russian tanks in the streets and a New Wave in the cinema," Peter Hames, The Manchester Guardian, 1999.
