Hearts and Minds echoes of propaganda in cinema
Ronald Reagan criticizes the 1975 documentary Hearts and Minds by Bert Schneider and Peter Davis as propaganda that distorts truth. He contrasts it with Leni Riefenstahl’s Triumph of the Will and questions the Oscars' praise while noting noble and ignoble acts in Vietnam. He warns against big lies and urges viewers to seek truth.
