Nazism And Cinema
Nazism created an elaborate system of propaganda, which made use of the new technologies of the 20th century, including cinema. Nazism courted the masses by the means of slogans that were aimed directly at the instincts and emotions of the people. The Nazis valued film as a propaganda instrument of enormous power. The interest that Adolf Hitler and his propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels took in film was not only the result of a personal fascination.

In September 1923, Philipp Nickel produced a documentary of the "German Day in Nuremberg" where the " Battle-Leagu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
