I've seen a few WWII propaganda films. They are rather interesting studies in the use of film to try to influence people's thinking. That subtle (or sometimes not so subtle) blend of fact, fiction, and outright lies to inflame passions and stir up prejudices is amazing. I wonder if Faux News makes their "newspeople" study them.

These range from 1:38 minutes to over an hour. Most have never been on the Internet before, and certainly not all in one place. 32.8 gigabytes of files. :what:

No, I stole them so some poor guy would be unable to feed his family.

Either that or the National Archives sent them to me to put online as they're in the public domain.

I'm not sure which. :read:

I think the answer to that curiously legalistic question is probably "yes". :eddy:

Actually, nobody "owns" them, they were produced at government expense, so the taxpayers (of whom I stand in bemusement) "own" them.
