Adolf Hitler, Benito and Suki Yaki are placed in a series of Three-Stooges routines, with the premise that the Board of Directors of Hell has put the Devil on notice they intend to replace him with Adolf Hitler unless he can get Hitler to commit a good deed. The devil has his work cut out for him, and doesn't appear likely to escape being replaced by the German leader.

The Devil with Hitler
Film #8 of 31**: 1 decade (1940s)

Look I can change hands without missing a stroke!

If only Vienna allowed Hitler to spread his splendor in art..

I think this was my first-ever slapstick flick, and it did not disappoint. There are a lot of good laughs and silly innuendos that really push the boundary for the olden day's propaganda material. Dialogue lines that would pretty much get you and the entire studio cancelled pretty easily, wait—so this makes it the 1940's The Interview then?
