This Land is Mine, 1943, Jean Renoir
Just watched this film about a Nazi-occupied European town and how the townspeople responded to the occupation. Sabotage or collaboration was their choice.
Great cast: Charles Laughton, George Sanders, Maureen O'Hara, Kent Smith. I especially enjoyed the perennially overwrought Una O'Connor as the schoolteacher's mother and the marvelous Walter Slezak as a charming Nazi officer. Laughton gave a command performance in his final courtroom scene. His speech was exquisitely crafted and executed.
It's definitely a propaganda film, but it addresses fascism--the elimination of the middle class for the sake of "peace" and the ensuing slavery, the suppression of the media, the assassination of intellectuals, and the indoctrination of the young.
I'm surprised I hadn't seen it or at least heard of it before. I watched it on Warner Archives.
