Eye of Vichy
Description
This is a brilliantly chosen compilation of long forgotten film footage and newsreels produced by Nazi and French collaborators during World War II. From the small town of Vichy in central France, Field Marshall Petain's puppet government worked with their Nazi overlords in creating pro-Nazi propaganda. Seeking to turn the tide of public emotion against both the Allied Forces and the Jews, they skillfully produced a strange alternative history of the war years that is shocking and grimly fascinating. French New Wave founder, Claude Chabrol, creates a masterful look at the Nazis and media manipulation that is as engrossing as any of his thrillers.
