Today in German Cinema, the film showed was Die Feuerzangenbowle, which was made in 1944. So this film had to get through the Nazi approval process before being showed to the public. It's really funny...not a propaganda film. I didn't realize that other kinds of films were being made in Germany at the time. It kind of seems like a waste of money and manpower that could've been used to win the war, but I guess that turned out all right for me!
There's a scene at the end of the movie where a student (below, right) is impersonating a teacher (below, left).
It reminded me of this scene from V for Vendetta, which seems peculiar because the first movie was made under the supervision of the National Socialist Party and the second is clearly anti-fascist.
Anyhow, this scene is hilarious.
