Hitler Came To Power Anti Semitism
1,484 wordsAnti-Semitism was widespread in Europe at the time Hitler came to power.

Scriptwriters' Patronising Depiction 'charmingly' Primitive Stupid Sycophantic Village
1,095 wordsWhoever had the crazy idea of dyeing Miss Tierney's hair blonde? Had the world gone mad? Whatever the reason, playing the part of an Italian village girl with platinum blonde hair can have done little to further Gene's career, especially since she does not even attempt an Italian accent, and limits herself to mechanically following a dreadful script which does not allow her to develop into any kind of believable character at all. This is a tasteless film in more ways than one: the scriptwriters'...

Order To Prevent Justice Douglas
