So, 'What Hitler Wants' is quite the fascinating artifact from 1941, isn't it? It's an animated war propaganda piece, which really captures that tense atmosphere of the time. The animation isn't the slickest, but there's something raw about it that gives it an edge. You can feel the urgency in the pacing, as it tries to convey its messages with a sort of frantic energy. The themes are pretty heavy, naturally, focusing on the fears and ideologies of WWII, and it's interesting to see how they used animation to tackle such serious subjects. The performances, though animated, carry a weight that’s really striking. It’s definitely a unique piece of history, reflecting the artistic choices of a troubled era.
This film is somewhat of a rarity in collector circles, with limited formats released over the years. Most copies are either in fading VHS or low-quality DVD, making pristine versions hard to find. Given its historical context, there's a niche interest in it, especially among those who study propaganda or animation history from the World War II era.
