i do find that quite a number watch the shirley temple movie. in many cases, especially with gone with the went, and i am not sure i will show birth of a nation anymore because that one is deeply offensive. i tell them in advance they will see things that are very different from what we see today in movies. the littlest rebel is particularly shocking because there is a scene when shirley temple appears in black face. i think they come away thinking, wow. seen reports in the news now, somebody being in blackface. the governor of virginia, for example. to see that in a movie leaves a profound impression. john: what difference was there -- was a pretty universal? nina: lincoln was a universal figure and a lot of wartime propaganda. there was -- there were some white southerners who talked about finding a way to appreciate lincoln. example,e that -- for douglas raymond, well-known as a biographer of robert ely. -- robert e lee. he was enlisted pretty upnificantly to gin propaganda from world war ii and , ing the example of lee .erms of his military

your analysis of the shirley temple movie is fascinating. [laughter] i cannot get the title in my head. nina: "the littlest rebel." peter: that's right. nina: people will confuse that with "the little colonel." they are very similar. peter: tell us about "the littlest rebel." nina: shirley temple, 1935. she is the daughter of a confederate and her father is off fighting. i think a union contingent comes to her plantation and somehow or other she befriends a union soldier. it is a very convoluted plot. a big part of the movie involves this happy-go-lucky life she lives on the plantation where bill bojangles robinson is the butler, the head of the household. that is an opportunity for them to do some dance numbers together, so that is important. but somehow or other by the end of the film -- [indiscernible] -- there is an accusation that the father has been a spy and the union soldier that has befriended her was helping her father this five. then they are both imprisoned. by the end of the movie, shirley temple and bill robinson have to go see
