The Library of Congress National Film Registry invited me to write about the George Pal Puppetoon Tulips Shall Grow. It is one of the most dramatic of Pal's animated films and the first American animated cartoon to be explicitly anti-Nazi. The historical circumstances behind its creation include Pal's history as well as Hollywood's dealings with the German market in the 1930s.
If you're unfamiliar with the film, you can watch it below.
