In the USSR, films were not allowed to go against the party line. Documents by communist propagandists reveal a set of guidelines for their film industry.

Eric Johnston, president of the US Chamber of Commerce and MPAA:

"We'll have no more Grapes of Wrath, we'll have no more Tobacco Roads. We'll have no more films that show the seamy side of American life. We'll have no pictures that deal with labor strikes. We'll have no pictures that deal with the banker as villain."
