AB  - The author focuses on the practice of showing older Czech films newly equipped with an introductory text and the so-called extended programmes, i.e. attaching medium-length documentaries to feature films in the early 1950s. These practices, he argues, demonstrate the contradiction between two ways of understanding cinema in post-war cultural policy - cinema as a place of education or upbringing and cinema as a place of entertainment.
