Name the film series, directed by frank capra for the united states army signal corp, that illustrated the importance of wwii to everyday americans?.

Respuesta :

Frank Capra's Why We Fight film series for the United States Army Signal Corps served to highlight the significance of World War II to regular Americans.

Seven propaganda movies called Why We Fight were created by the US Department of War between 1942 and 1945, during World War II. Originally intended to explain to American soldiers why the country was fighting, US President Franklin D. Roosevelt ordered dissemination to the general population. Leni Riefenstahl's 1935 propaganda film Triumph of the Will intimidated but impressed and pushed Academy Award-winning director Frank Capra, who created a direct response. The show had to overcome a number of obstacles, including persuading a non-interfering country to join the conflict and support the Soviet Union. Numerous entries use propaganda images from the Axis powers that have been contextualized to support the Allies and date back up to 20 years. Although William Hornbeck did most of the editing, some scenes were reenacted "under War Department supervision" if the appropriate footage wasn't available. Walt Disney Productions created animated segments, and the animated maps adhered to a convention of painting Axis-occupied territory black.
