I don’t suppose the vault also included a number of Lon Chaney’s lost films?

The fact is in the 1930s, the Nazis had considerable sway in Hollywood (a familiar theme in Hollywood that goes on today), they heavily influenced Hollywood’s portrayal of the Nazis up until WWII...and their tone towards Hitler only changed when he invaded their beloved Soviet Union.

If their is one word of Hitler’s Gun Control in this, it will get poo-pooed. If their is we need it non DVD and sent it to liberal minded friends..

Great find Nick::::"The German embassy in the US protested, so the film was censored and adapted. It was then shown in other cities but with much less success," ...It's true the elites and many politicians were enamored with Hitler and Mussolini. Maybe like to-days politicians who admire Islam for its power over the masses...

It's very important and "has now been re-mastered and will be shown at New York's Museum of Modern Art next month."
Why not put it on youtube? Money?
This is art?

Remember, this was before the Internet. So Hitler's power grab and ensuing reign of terror was not documented on Free Republic and other patriot websites. Instead, we were spoon-fed the news through newsreels and newspapers. Heck, there wasn't even FoxNews or talk radio back then. We were truly at a disadvantage when it came to taking pre-emptive action against a ruthless, vegetarian, far-Left dictator.
And the folks in London weren't helping us at all. Instead, they were busy appeasing Hitler and declaring "peace for our time" while throwing the people of Austria and Czechoslovakia to the wolves.
Winston Churchill might just have saved the entire civilized world. Singlehandedly.

Mr Kempner died in 1993 and museum officials later took possession of some of his document collection, but the Rosenberg diary remained missing until recently. Acting upon information they received last November about the diary, authorities seized the missing pages after locating them in upstate New York.
According to the article, the "authorities" included the Justice Department (still grinding slowly) and the Department of Homeland Security. Odd that they were involved. Maybe the werewolves are still active in threatening America - or - maybe their Muslim allies are mentioned?
Looking ahead to ~2083...

Hopefully all of the films portraying the truth about Obama will be stored somewhere safe before they get destroyed along with other things like the U.S. Constitution.

In the video at the link, Vanderbilt is asked for his assessment of Hitler. He replies:
Unquestionably he is a man of real ability, of force. But the way I sized him up after interviewing him is that he is a strange combination of Huey Long, Billy Sunday, and Al Capone. I had never heard a man so able to sway people. He said Germany refused to forget her two million war dead. In the hour and a half that Hitler talked to that packed audience that night, he was as effective as a barker in a sideshow travelling with a circus. The German people had suffered so long that they were ready to accept the promises of anyone who held out some hope for the future.

Cornelius Vanderbilt?
I’m guessing not the same one referenced in the old Hudson & Landry routine.

“That’s funny, he don’t talk with an accent.”
