Der Führer's Face
"Education for Death, Reason and Emotion, Chicken Little and Der Fuehrer's Face were all pointed attacks at the Third Reich. The last is a bitter satire on life in Hitler's Germany. Donald is a starved, oppressed worker on a munitions assembly line. He is again cast as the little man, but this time he is crushed and driven to madness by a rigid totalitarian state that allows little or no hope for the individual.Wij komen hierop dankzij Max J. Molovich, die in zijn stuk Zomergasten (7): Donald Duck als nazi een aantal behartigenswaardige en interessante dingen over Donald Duck zegt en het Donaldduckfilmpje in quaestie aanklikbaar op zijn pagina heeft neergezet, als u begrijpt wat wij bedoelen.The film was to be called Donald in Nutziland, but its name was changed before release to the title of a song by Oliver Wallace that figures prominently in it. The song became a hit on the record charts. Donald is agonizingly effective, and the entire picture is an artistic tour de force. So powerful was its impact that it was translated and smuggled into Germany, much to the chagrin of the Nazi Party. Donald as symbol of the Allied struggle is beautifully captured by the film's poster, which has him pelting Hitler smack in the eye with a ripe tomato. The tomato's dripping remains are used in the film to form the letters of the words "The End.""
En nu gaan wij dat Donaldduckboek herlezen, met Spike Jones op de achtergrond.
