| Abstract
|
:
|
In a rigorous analysis of the American occupation of postwar Germany and the military?s use of?soft power,? Jennifer Fay considers how Hollywood films, including Ninotchka, Gaslight, and Stagecoach, influenced German culture and cinema. Theaters of Occupation reveals how Germans responded to these education efforts and offers new insights about American exceptionalism and virtual democracy at the dawn of the cold war.
