Love, Hate and Propaganda: WWII For a New Generation - 4 disc, dual language DVD. Hosted by "The Hour's" George Stroumboulopoulos, this six-part documentary series, co-produced by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and Radio-Canada, brings the most important war in history into sharp focus through the lens of propaganda.
This was the first modern war in which all combatants bombarded their citizens with messages: through newsreels and posters, radio addresses and songs, speeches and rallies. The great - and the evil - minds of that era knew propaganda could awaken powerful passions: love, devotion, anger, and hatred. They employed truth, half-truths and sometimes outright lies, used powerful symbols and persuasive words to sway entire populations. Today's viewers, familiar with every kind of messaging, will discover how war was sold around the world by these early practitioners of mass propaganda. Every movie house, school, newspaper and radio became a forum for persuasion and manipulation.
Above all, Love, Hate and Propaganda is a series that explores the psychology of war. Why did some enthusiastically follow while others bravely resisted? How could a young shop owner in Berlin come to believe that murdering civilians was a necessary part of asserting German pride? Why did a teenage girl in Japan believe her country had a divine mission to 'civilize' all of Asia at the barrel of a gun? Why did Hollywood believe it was necessary to demonize the Japanese in order to persuade Americans to fight? And, in the darkest days of WWII, how did so many manage to keep faith and fight evil when all seemed hopeless?
