On All Fronts:
World War II on Film

We continue our yearlong examination of war and its consequences with a focus on the Second World War. While the majority of war-related films produced in Hollywood during the 1940s were supportive if not unabashedly propagandistic, most filmmakers did not take a more critical view of these events until many years later. This series focuses on many of these reconsiderations which seek not to explain "why we fight" but rather "at what cost."
