As the German Minister for Propaganda, Goebbels had complete control of the Nazi propaganda machine. Britain and America made flag-waving films, certainly, but nothing like as polarized as Triumph of the Will. That's the conventional picture, of course, and it suits the narrative of the democracies. But Goebbels had enormous regard for British propaganda films, in particular. Why did In Which We Serve work so well and so many expensive Nazi propaganda films fail so badly? This course demonstrates the wider picture of the feature film propaganda made by the Axis Powers as well as the Allies. It's a more interesting story than the two-dimensional narrative has traditionally told us.
