Salute Your Shorts is a weekly column that looks at short films,
music videos, commercials or any other short form visual media that
generally gets ignored.Perhaps it's no surprise that the greatest patriotic films ever made about the United States were also made by the United States and I’m not talking about how Michael Bay somehow convinces the army to help him make movies time and time again. During World War II, and also slightly before we actually entered the war, a number of Hollywood directors entered various branches of the military to make films supporting the war effort. The list of patriotic luminaries included such famed directors as John Ford, John Huston, William Wyler, Darryl Zanuck and, most importantly, Frank Capra.
