Background: Jud Süß was one of a trio of anti-Semitic films released early in the war. It got the full support of the entire propaganda system. Here, for example, is a full page ad for the film taken from the Nazi Luftwaffe magazine. The ad claims that 8,000,000 people have seen the film, which was released in late-September 1940.

The source: Der Adler, 26 November 1940, p. 624.
