Benito Mussolini Part 4: A Fine Bromance
As the World Cup comes to the Fatherland, Benito Mussolini prepares to meet Adolf Hitler鈥�
Il Duce uses propaganda to become a folk hero - part saint, part Father Christmas. He bans journalists from mentioning his birthday or the fact he鈥檚 a grandfather - to promote an image of eternal youth. Ernest Hemingway arrives in Switzerland to interview the Italian strongman, and sees right through him. Italy launches a genocidal campaign in Libya and gets away with it. And as the World Cup comes to the Fatherland, Benito Mussolini prepares to finally meet one Adolf Hitler鈥�
A Noiser production, written by Jeff Dawson.
