This American girl taught him to love!") starring Otto Kruger, Clifford Severn, Pat Parrish, Jimmy Carpenter, Erwin Kalser, William 'Billy' Benedict, Frederick Giermann, and Frederic Brunn. Note that this movie was made near the end of World War II, after some of the revelations about the concentration camps became public knowledge, and this movie pulls no punches in its extreme patriotism and anti-Nazi sentiment. It tells of a non-Jewish German teen who is instructed in the glories of Hitler in high school, and they take the students on a field trip to the Dachau concentration camp, and they are told by their teacher to kill some of the Jewish prisoners with shovels. The student refuses, and he tries to help one of the prisoners, who gives him advice to flee Germany and gives him a letter of introduction to a U.S. professor. The young man goes to the U.S. and finds the professor and is enrolled in the high school there, and he learns about what makes America great, and he is asked to give a speech on the radio about the evils of Nazism, but when he is about to start, he is told that the people in Germany might hear his radio speech, so he fears for his family's life, and starts to defend the Nazis as not so bad, but his mother appears to him in a dream, telling him to do what is right, and he goes back and makes a stirring speech telling how evil the Nazis are, and he graduates high school, and becomes a U.S. citizen, planning to join the military and fight the Nazis!
