Film Question - US and Russia in Each Other's Films

[Giuliano Vivaldi]

Given that someone mentioned the Kuleshov film, the actor who played Cowboy Jeddy (Boris Barnet) was of course to go on to shoot (alongside Fyodor Otsep) Miss Mend which was partly set in an imagined America. 

Many of the established Soviet film-makers in the post-war early Cold War period would shoot their contribution to the Cold War mythology- Dovzhenko Goodbye, America (set though in the American embassy not the US), then there was the Russian Question (Mikhail Romm), Silvery Dust (Room) etc. There's a fine article on cold war films by Andrey Shcherbenok in Kinokultura : http://www.kinokultura.com/2010/28-shcherbenok.shtml
