YES! Anti-nazi-propaganda from Disney! Has some pretty good shots in it but the depiction of Hitler is maybe a bit too silly. The picture of Goebbels however, was pretty scary. Like nazi-Gollum.

I really have to wonder how people kept from laughing their asses off at propaganda this thick.

lol. This is so fucking dumb that if I was a ten year old living in 1943 and had this screened to me, then I probably would have wanted to become a Nazi. HEIL HITLER!

If ever there were a time to teach a class about propaganda, this would would be the perfect example of such. While the essence of propaganda is painfully obvious in this short, what it does well is create stunning imagery and hit you hard with the threat of Nazism, while encouraging the audience that they need to defeat said threat to avoid catastrophe.

An absolutely fantastic anti-Nazi short. It follows Hans, a young German boy, from the time he is first born, originally affording him and his mother sympathy. However, we then see how Nazi propaganda completely warps him, making him an instrument of pure evil. There is great imagery throughout, especially the Nazi version of Sleeping Beauty. The ending is particularly chilling, with its vision of an apocalyptic hell on Earth. Truly outstanding work.

Disturbingly dark and serious anti-Nazi short from Disney of all people. I find it hilarious that this film derides the Nazis for using propaganda to brainwash German citizens...and then portrays Hitler as a braying, incompetent jackass and Goebbels as some kind of Boogeyman, all without a hint of irony.

I really don't know how to rate this. It's pretty strange and original and it did make me laugh quite a bit. On the other hand it's pretty disturbing to think anyone considered this appropriate for children.

A creepy mixture of frightening imagery and lowbrow slapstick. Hitler's depiction as a blustery buffoon, while perhaps adequate from a 1943 American perspective, seems criminally deficient today.

As a historical document, this is fascinating stuff. Because it's Disney Prime, the craftsmanship is top notch. But be prepared to squirm on about five different levels.

Brilliant war propaganda that also happens to be beautifully animated. Also extremely disturbing, fuckin' Hitler.

Ah propaganda for children. At least Disney was anti-Nazi, unlike Fanta or IBM.

Interesting short, but very consequential.

Starring: Adolf Hitler lol. PS, this sucks.
