were scenes of large crowds sort of cut and edited to look like one enormous rally when it really was only about 1/3 the size of the real ones.

I watched a documentary about film director George Stevens (Giant, A Place In The Sun, Shane, etc.) last week and learned that the super famous film most of us remember was not made by Goebbels but by Leni Riefenstahl....

"American film director George Stevens was moved to join the military after viewing Leni Riefenstahl's Nazi propaganda film, Triumph of the Will. He was not admiring its message, but rather was horrified by its power and the influence it could wield".

He understood the power of film and his work during WWII was amazing.

of knowing how important film documentation would be needed as proof of crimes after the war. They used his films as evidence at the Nuremberg Trials.

Not many like him any more.

I still don't know how he pulled off D-Day.

Weather was lousy. Men were all sea sick from sitting in rocking boats for days.
Weather was too bad to release them across the channel.
Ike finally said we gotta do it now.

And Hitler knew nothing about the invasion.
That was an an intelligence miracle on the part of the US allies.

during the landing. I can easily see tRump doing the same thing and his staff would be afraid to wake him.

"Adolf Hitler was asleep when the D-Day invasion began, and his subordinates hesitated to wake him and order reinforcements, leading to crucial delays in the German response. The Fuhrer remained asleep until around noon, by which time the initial Allied landings were well underway, and he initially dismissed the invasion as a feint before eventually agreeing to send in the Panzer divisions.
Hitler was at his residence in the Bavarian Alps, and the evening before D-Day, June 5, 1944, had been a relaxed, almost festive one.
His staff had received strict orders not to disturb him for any reason. German commanders in the invasion area requested permission to move Panzer forces but were delayed by the reluctance to wake him. When Hitler did wake up, he still believed the invasion was a diversionary tactic and initially refused to commit reinforcements."

He had given orders to never wake him up under any circumstances.
Can you imagine this, his country is at war, and only he is allowed to make
decisions but he is not available 24/7. Another narcissist who doesn't care
about anyone but himself.

So the German generals did not have the authority to make decisions on their own without his approval. They could have easily moved some German divisions to France right away and
given the Allies a much more difficult time of it.

Even when Hitler woke up he did not understand what was happening and downplayed
the invasion. The officers on the ground knew exactly what they were looking at.

Yes it was greatest German intelligence failure of the war. They were totally clueless
about the impending invasion and Hitler and his higher ranking officers were relaxing
and having a good time at their retreat hideaways.

By the end of June, the Allies had landed on the Normandy shores over 850,000 men, 148,000 vehicles, and 570,000 tons of supplies. Those men and materials had been on the move for months before the invasion. And the Germans had no idea at all. How could the intel services have missed this? The British were superb spies and had planted false information in the German spy network. Hitler was convinced that if an invasion came it would take place in Italy or Calais.
The Allies together made a brilliant deception campaign which totally fooled Germany.

By the way, by intimidating the US Generals, Trump is doing the same kind of thing.
Making American generals afraid to make decisions in the field in real time.
