A IMAGEM DE SANTOS NO CINEMA: DÉCADAS DE 1920 A 2020

Abstract

In view of the time of great effervescence in cinema and the relationship that the city of
Santos has undertaken with the phase of metropolization in São Paulo, it is important to
know and identify the images that the city has provided as a place of drama and scene. When
recovering the image of Santos in the cinema, the present research sought to find imagistic
relations with São Paulo and to investigate how, as the image of the city of São Paulo changes
further, to understand what happens with the image of Santos. Thus, the sampling of films
chosen for critical analysis made it possible to understand how the city of Santos has changed
over the years and how cinema has followed these changes.
