Abstract
This paper presents the trends of films during the Khrushchev Thaw and aims to examine the relationship between the changes of political power and emerge of a new method of film creation. In the history of Soviet cinema, the Khrushchev Thaw means its critical and methodological changes carried by the films produced from 1956 to 1966. The political change of the Khrushchev Thaw did not emerge until Khrushchev became first secretary of the Central Committee and denounced Stalin's brutal despotism in his famous “secret speech” before the Twentieth Party Congress in February 1956. Khrushchev's changes against his former boss ranged from self-glorification to political mass murder, and he roundly indicted Stalin's promulgation of a “cult of personality”. It is significant to note that Khrushchev's de-stalinization had a huge impact on artists. Khrushchev emphasized the return to Marxism and Leninism. It concludes that in the cinema during Khrushchev Thaw there appeared a lot of film describing Lenin's life and activities and characters embodying Marxism-Leninism. In addition, this paper presents that films in those days emphasized an individual and reality in one's life. These new methods of film-creation during Khrushchev Thaw was a result of in-depth examination and description on an individual and reality which was repressed in Stalin regime. In conclusion, this paper show that political changes carried by de-stalinization process caused the emergence of new methods of film-creation during Khrushchev Thaw. Key words:Soviet cinema, Khrushchev Thaw, Political power, de-stalinization, Marxism and Leninism, Individual, Reality, The Cranes are Flying
