A propos de cet article

ABANDONED PROPAGANDA FILMS OF THE THIRD REICH by William Gillespie During its twelve years, the Third Reich created more than a thousand feature films. Dr. Joseph Goebbels, the Reich Minister of Propaganda and Public Enlightenment, was a true believer that the motion picture was a key weapon to engage the German public in supporting National Socialism. He devoted hours almost every day or night to reading film scripts, screening films before they were approved for cinemas, and overseeing the massive film industry. By February 1942, public audiences in Germany reached 1.067 billion attendees, overshadowing Hollywood to become the world's largest film industry. Post-war historians from the USA and UK acknowledged that German propaganda was "the war that Hitler won," with Nazi propaganda films being significantly more sophisticated and better produced than those of their enemies. Germany's excellent actors, high production standards, major studios, skilled composers, and technicians created numerous top films, such as Jud Süss and Ohm Krüger. This is the first book devoted to surveying films that were approved and announced in film studios' annual preview catalogs but then never made: Nazi ideological films, military and war films, German colony films, "German Genius" biopics, anti-British and/or pro-Irish films, anti-Soviet films, and anti-Semitic films. Even a pro-American film was planned before Pearl Harbor brought the U.S.A. into WWII. The collection comprises thirty-nine unproduced propaganda films, along with all available information, and includes chapters detailing Third Reich filmmaking during both peacetime and wartime. Extensive research into documents, internal reports, and letters exchanged with Dr Goebbels, the Propaganda Ministry, the Head of German Film (Reichsfilmintendant), and the Reich Film Chamber, as well as minutes from board meetings at the renowned Ufa film studio, has been conducted to gather insights about these projects, which have been translated into English. A selection of fifty-four images, mostly in color, along with graphics and proposed film posters, revive these unknown and forgotten stories. Written by William Gillespie, Australia, 2025, 156 pages, 6x9 inches, Perfect Bound Softcover, 42 Color Graphics and 12 B&W Graphics and Photos. English Language. SEE the book's Table of Contents in the Photo Gallery. Review from the September 2025 issue of The Historical Journal of Film, Radio & Television: "A fascinating insight into how the German film industry operated throughout the war." "An essential reference source for scholars interested in delving into the inner workings of the rise and fall of filmmaking in the Third Reich." "The resources that William Gillespie has assembled are a truly staggering collection of materials that can serve as a definitive starting point for a deeper understanding of how Nazi film was produced." This order shall be posted in a sturdy, die-cut, heavy cardboard mailer, as shown, using Australia Post's Domestic and International Standard Airmail Shipping, or AP International Express Post shipping.
