In 1945 World War II had kept front line nurse Claire Randall and soldier husband Frank apart. Now that the war was concluded, the two embarked on a second honeymoon. Not only did Frank hope to reconnect with his wife, but looked to reconnect with his family’s past so chose to visit his ancestral home. Things seemed to be going well until Claire suddenly found herself hurled back to the year 1743 where she met one of Frank’s ancestors. ("Sassenach", Outlander, TV)

Walt Disney did a cartoon with Hitler in it, you know. So we all did something about the war [in film]. But we didn't think these shorts would live on from then. They'd appear now and you can't use them. Because, we figured they'd be good for a couple of weeks [...] They were like newsreels at that time.
