Title: Disney takes on Hitler... 1942
Post by: Widewing on March 15, 2012, 11:41:50 PM
This old Disney cartoon is a wonderful representation of the nation's mood in 1942... Today, some might be offended by the Heil Hitlers and swastikas, but it's still an entertaining window into war time entertainment. The storyline is based upon the Spike Jones hit, "Der Fuehrer's Face."

Yep :(

We live in a bubble-wrapped world, and I hate it. I wish I had been born in the days of no seatbelts, violet cartoons, toys. That weren't plastic or foam, but metal and wood. The days when parents let their kids wander freely without cell phones or having to worry about "abduction" and how likely it is. To happen :rolleyes: -.-

But I wasn't. :(

Not totally off topic.  A couple days ago, I seen a guy with a Hitler mustache.  He looked more like Oliver Hardy, minus the bowler hat.

In '43 Disney also made a more serious cartoon called "Education for Death".

Spike Jones and his City Slickers.

I have an original '78 record of that, and a working wind up phonograph to play it on.
