An Original Vintage German Movie Souvenir Program Book (measures 10 3/4" x 11 3/4" [27 x 30 cm]; 40 pages) (Learn More) Ohm Kruger (released in English-speaking countries as "Uncle Kruger"), the 1941 Hans Steinhoff German Nazi propaganda colonial South Africa war political melodrama (about the South African Boer War; the movie is on the conditional list because it has strong anti-British elements) starring Emil Jannings (in the title role as Ohm Kruger), Lucie Hoflich, Werner Hinz, Ernst Schroder, Gisela Uhlen, and Friedrich Ulmer. Note that this is a "conditional" movie. This refers to around 40 movies that were made in Germany between 1933 and 1945, during the time the Nazis were in power in Germany. These movies are considered to be propaganda movies, which glorify the Nazi regime and their ideals. Immediately after World War II, a list of over 100 movies that were made between 1933 and 1945 was created, and those movies were not allowed to be shown at any time in Germany or Austria. Over the next decade, around 60 of those movies were taken off the list so that they are allowed to be shown (but rarely are), and those movies are known as "forbidden movies", because even though they can now be shown, they could not be shown at all in the years right after World War II. The remaining 40 or so movies (including this one) are known as "conditional" movies, because they are still not allowed to be shown in Germany or Austria, even in the present day, with the sole exception being when they are shown in an educational context, like at a university, and a speaker talks before and after the movie.
