The Carpenters

Someone should put this one on a collection of WWII animation, though the only known print may (or may not) be in the garage of its late director. Paul Fennell said that there was nearly a riot in the aftermath of the Westwood premiere, as this very pro-war animated cartoon made its debut several months prior to the U.S. entering the global conflict and the country's sentiments were then far from united on the subject. In fact, shouts of "Warmonger!" were heard in the night from some departing patrons. "The Carpenters" is absolutely worth a look, if only for its historical significance and high level of craft. Paul Fennell later made many interesting wartime animated films for the U.S. government, with a young and talented crew, most of which unfortunately aren't available for viewing at this point anywhere. Fennell later ran his own TV commercial studio and lived into the 1980s.
