A list of films produced in the Soviet Union in 1923 (see 1923 in film).
The cinema of the Soviet Union includes films produced by the constituent republics of the Soviet Union reflecting elements of their pre-Soviet culture, language and history, albeit they were all regulated by the central government in Moscow. Most prolific in their republican films, after the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, were Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Ukraine, and, to a lesser degree, Lithuania, Belarus and Moldavia. At the same time, the nation's film industry, which was fully nationalized throughout most of the country's history, was guided by philosophies and laws propounded by the monopoly Soviet Communist Party which introduced a new view on the cinema, socialist realism, which was different from the one before or after the existence of the Soviet Union.

After an extended gap in 1920–1921, it took over the legacy of the State Bank of the Russian Empire. With the dissolution of the Soviet Union, it was terminated on 1 March 1992 and its local operations were taken over by the newly formed central banks of the post-Soviet states such as the National Bank of Kazakhstan, Central Bank of Russia (CBR), or National Bank of Ukraine, while the CBR inherited its central operations.
