La reflexión y la crítica católica en la prensa cinematográfica bajo el franquismo. Del nacional-catolicismo a Ingmar Bergman

Abstract

This article discusses Catholic reflection in the film press under the Franco dictatorship. With a leading role in education, media and culture, the assumptions of the Catholic Church on the silver screen would be anathema to attempts to analyse their operation as a phenomenon, especially their influence on children and young people and the development of some critical assumptions that enabled highlighting films with assumed values. Filmology will be essential in the field of reflection, which will involve a department at the Higher Centre for Scientific Research. With regards to critical exercise, the Catholics will reformulate and adapt main critical paradigms to their assumptions in each moment.
