The arrival of recent German films for showing in the United States has revealed that although the German film makers are beginning, nine years after the war’s end, to deal with various aspects of the Hitler era, they are steering away from any serious handling of the Nazis’ policy of anti-Semitism, according to Variety, publication of the entertainment industry.
The explanation for this development, according to Variety, is that films which would handle the question of anti-Semitism would be highly unpopular with German audiences. However, this aspect is expected to present American film exhibitors with a problem in selling the films to American audiences.
