Abstract
This paper examines the increased censorship of film during the inaugural decades of the Soviet Union. Through an overview of the different genres and trends of Soviet cinema during this time, I draw parallels to the political climate and the role of film as an information medium. Censorship remains a persistent, if evolving, feature of the Communist Partys relationship with cinema throughout this time, and I conclude that in this case, censorship of art through the medium of film, is akin to inhibiting the dissemination of information.
