FILMS

Here again much is already being done and “balance” is the main point to watch.

Certain existing films might be revived, if possible with subsidies so that cinemas may be induced to show them by the specially low charge. The films suggested here express the themes of German trickery and cruelty:

Confessions of a Nazi spy

Nurse Cavell

Professor Mamlock

Pastor Hall

Also revivals of films which represent heroic achievements against Germany in the British past, such as:

For Ever England

Mons

Cavalcade

Encouragement of feature films dealing with the German character. A scenario “The Gestapo in England” has already been prepared along these lines.

Special three-minute shorts made by documentary companies out of news reels for free distribution. Example:

Hitler Speaks (Hitler's speeches - the voice dubbed in English - cut in with news shots to show the broken promises, the trickery and the barbarity).

The Same Old German (shots of the last war cut in with the present war),

Reproduction of Proclamations by Germans in conquered territories with “dissolves” giving English translations.
