Contents/Summary
- Summary
- "The Eye of Vichy" is a carefully chosen compilation of long forgotten film footage and newsreels produced by the Nazis and French colloborators 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 hsitory of the war years that is shocking and grimly fascinating. French New wave founder Claude Chabrol creates a masterful look at Nazis and media manipulation that is engrossing as any of his thrillers.
