I have never seen Frank Capra’s “Why We Fight”. Have you seen it? What is your opinion?

It was a docu-educational film made to basically explain what was going on in WW2, and mostly to gain support for the US entering the war, using the enemy’s original propaganda films against them and linking the fight to American values and freedom (though not really the whole picture because, as many Hollywood projects did back then, it goes light on the horrors of Soviet Communism, since they were fighting the Nazis, and so were technically on “our” side ). I have & have seen it a number of times as a history buff, and just on a filmmaking level its very interesting to see a director of that caliber handle the message & material. Hope that helps
