第二次世界大战期间，由于宣传原因而在德国使用的德国电影经常被盟军截获并送往加拿大。然后，约翰·格里森领导的国家电影委员会将利用德国影片进行联合宣传。丘吉尔岛也许是西方宣传中最著名的一个岛屿，它在用纳粹镜头展示邪恶的同时颂扬盟军事业的优点。

During WWII, German films to be used in Germany for propaganda reasons were often intercepted by the Allies and sent to Canada. The National Film Board, under John Grierson, would then use the German footage in Allied propaganda. 

Churchill's Island, perhaps the most famous of the Western propaganda, extolls the virtues of the Allied cause while using Nazi footage to show the evils of fascism. 

While this film seems very dated (and with good reason, it's 60 years old), it's still a fascinating look at the use of a relatively new media as a tool of social control. 8/10.
