Question authority
Это взгляд необразованных американцев, а в моем кругу русских считают очень образованными людьми.
Великие умы обсуждают идеи. Средние умы обсуждают события. Мелкие умы обсуждают людей. (Э. Рузвельт)
Unfortunately, the depictions of Russians in post-Cold War movies are not always positive. In 14% of the movies included in this study, Russians were presented as "thugs," "goons," or Mafiosi.
Finally, the early data analysis suggests that contemporary representations of Russians in American film may serve a different function than they did during the Cold War. In the 60s, 70s, and 80s, presenting Russians as "the enemy" played an important function in helping America define its own identity. Russians were presented as the "Them" against whom the "Us" could be defined. Post-Cold War movies seem to present Russians more pluralistically, with many identities, both positive and negative, and with these revised (re)presentations, Americans' cultural perceptions of Russians are continuously being shaped and reshaped.
