WWII Pasta!




As a student of history this video was very interesting to me. While watching it I thought about how it was at the time the video was made and then compared it to propaganda of this age. Interesting huh? The director is Zach Schappli, it is a Riefenstahl-esque Fascist kitchen rally propoganda technique... Got it? Basically it is suppose convince you to support the war and it is represented by bow-tie, rigatoni, ravioli and more... I'm guessing if there was a propaganda poster for their war bonds it would be, "Italian Bonds!! The Safest, Easiest, Fascist way to make money!" -Sophia Petrillo
