Best Propaganda Films?

It's good to know what the enemy thinks, or what they are trying to influence. I saw "The Eternal Jew" and though there's some general blanket racist statements as expected, I hated seeing the animals "koshered" - I had to look away.

I know we have many members from many countries, and I'd prefer to see older stuff, since I'm not as familiar.

Der Fuehrer's Face

Nightcrawlers? What are they trying to tell us, MAN!

Jud Süß (1940) is always the first thing that comes to mind for me. It was a successful film at the box office, and a notoriously successful piece of Nazi propaganda.

I was watching a documentary that showed a Stalin propaganda movie.. If I find it, and if it's any good, I'll list it here.

Would "Reefer Madness" be considered American propaganda?

Battleship Potemkin by Sergei Eisenstein, that would be the one

Maybe you know what the most subversive movies were released by MosFilms during the age of Stalin..

Mrs Miniver.

Nevskiy is excelent, and another propaganda one is definitely Agony by Klimov that portraits the "decadency" of czarism making Nicholas II and his family look like a bunch of infantile and cruel people.

Münchhausen – thankfully it's a very good film with not too much of a shadow hanging over it. The signs are there though.

The Woman On Pier 13 (or the more fun title, I Married A Communist) is a decent and quite unusual propaganda movie. It is anti communist, but the man who's a communist is portrayed as a poor man who's been deceived rather than an evil commie like some other movies of the time did. It's an interesting watch.

I've been wanting to see this movie for years. Thanks for the reminder!

The Avengers

I haven't been able to find this.. How did you view this?

Pulgasari

Triumph of the Will

The Birth of a Nation

A Few Good Men.

The Colonel at the end talking about how they bravely defend the wall of Guantanemo Bay against those deadly Cuban's. He makes it sound like they are the only thing holding back a horde of Zombies from wiping out humanity.

Generally any flag waving Murica #1 movie where they are invading some ****** country and killing legios while a handful of their own die.
