History and profile

Nuestro Cine was established in 1961. [2] The magazine advocated the idea that the cinema was a way of uncovering reality, its social structures, and the basis of external appearances. [3] Its theoretical basis was Marxist literary theory and literary criticism, particularly the views developed by György Lukács which were interpreted by the Italian film critic Guido Aristarco. [3]

The major contributors of Nuestro Cine included José Luis Guarner, Ricardo Muñoz Suay and Vicente Molina Foix. [2] The magazine adopted a Marxist approach in dealing with the films and film-related topics. [1] However, between 1965 and 1967 it was among the supporters of the new Spanish cinema which was funded by the Franco government. [4] It folded in 1970. [2]

Censorship in Francoist Spain was mandated by Francisco Franco in Francoist Spain, between 1936-1975. In Francoist Spain, primary subjects of censorship included public display of liberal political ideology, art forms such as literature and film, as well as symbols of foreign, non-conservative ideologies. This censorship was primarily driven by Franco's vision for ideological unity in Spain. As a result, Franco called for the censorship of materials that promoted liberal ideas from abroad, particular those of European origin. Aside from censorship of foreign ideology, symbols of Spanish identity, such as Catalonia, also became primary targets of censorship. Under his authoritarian reign, censorship was imposed primarily through systemic political repression. The Francoist State repressed expression of liberal social and political ideology among the Spanish public.
