520    "Until recently, it was assumed that the Nazis agitated 
       against Chaplin from 1931 to 1933, and then again from 
       1938, when his plan to make The Great Dictator became 
       public. This book demonstrates that Nazi agitation against
       Chaplin was in fact a constant from 1926 through the Third
       Reich. When The Gold Rush was released in the Weimar 
       Republic in 1926, the Nazis began to fight Chaplin, whom 
       they alleged to be Jewish, and attempted to expose him as 
       an intellectual property thief whose fame had faded. In 
       early 1935, the film The Gold Rush was explicitly banned 
       from German theaters. In 1936, the NSDAP Main Archives 
       opened its own file on Chaplin, and the same year, he 
       became entangled in the machinery of Nazi press control. 
       German diplomats were active on a variety of international
       levels to create a mood against The Great Dictator. The 
       Nazis' dehumanizing attacks continued until 1944, when an 
       opportunity to capitalize on the Joan Barry scandal arose.
       This book paints a complicated picture of how the Nazis 
       battled Chaplin as one of their most reviled foreign 
       artists"--|cProvided by publisher.
