This thesis aimed to study the relationship that teachers in the municipal public school system establish with the cultural industry, meaning to understand the criteria by which these professionals attribute formative or pedagogical value to certain cultural products. The observation of the school environment suggests that teachers, in response to social expectations, tend to develop a sui generis relationship with culture, and also tend to make different distinctions between high culture and mass culture. It was this research's goal to study to what degree this distinction is present at the teaching activity, and how such distinction relates to the idea of an education that fosters criticism and autonomy. For this purpose, picking from the municipal public school system of São Paulo city, four schools were visited and six teachers interviewed. The theoretical reference of Critical Theory was adopted - mostly Horkheimer and Adorno reflections over the cultural industry (and its effects on conscience) and over pseudoformation - as were the concepts of desublimation repressive of art works and of artistic alienation, both present in Herbert Marcuse. It was also Marcuse who offered the chief theoretical background of total administration of post-industrial societies plus its consequences. The results obtained suggest that teachers indeed maintain a distinction between high culture and mass culture, but also that such distinction is actually complex and not necessarily linked to a greater ability by one teacher to promote criticism- and autonomy-oriented education. As an addition, it is noticeable how social pressure and pressure from the teaching institution's part weight more on the choosing of films, for teaching, than the teacher's personal relationship with cinema
