A NEWSREEL HISTORY OF THE THIRD REICH - CHURCHILL: THE WAR CRIMINAL - 1940
Description:
DOCUMENTARY
This educational and thought provoking series comprises German newsreel recordings and includes unique footage plundered by Russians troops. Directed and orchestrated under the influence of Goebbels’s Ministry of Propaganda, it is by no means an accurate historical depiction but a fascinating insight into how the period leading up to and including World War Two was portrayed to the German people. This episode focuses primarily on Hitler’s plans for the invasion of Britain and his personal sparring with Sir Winston Churchill and the British population. It also includes German attempts to rebuild and to portray the “normality” in occupied countries and Germany’s continued military build-up.
