It's A Fact

The first anti-Hitler Hollywood film featured the Three Stooges.


You Natzy Spy! was an 18-minute film released in 1940 by the Three Stooges that ridiculed Hitler and Goering at a time when American public opinion was largely neutral toward the Nazis and most people favored isolationism. The film also came out nine months before Charlie Chaplin's much more famous anti-Hitler film, The Great Dictator, and even caught the attention of a disapproving Senate committee investigating anti-Nazi propaganda.
