AB During World War II propaganda was a fundamental province. US launched aformidable propagandistic machine, being one of its less studied aspects the one referingto neutral countries. This study outlines a general view of the American propaganda inSpain during WWII, concentrating afterwards in motion-pictures. Hollywood movies hadan important and icreasing importance in Spain as the war advanced. US newsreels -censored- were shown in Spain until the foundation of NO-DO (monopolistic newsreelof the Spanish State). From then (1943) the presence of US news filmed material in NODOincreased until the end of the war. Propaganda documentaries had a wide difussionthank to US Embassy efforts. But, what Spanish audience wanted after the Civil War was Hollywood movies. This tremendously important propaganda weapon had a lot ofdifficulties for its difussion: comercial, censorship, etc. Notwithstanding, motion-pictures played a fundamental role in US propaganda activities in Spain during WW II. This work is based fundamentally on original files of the National Archives in Washigton DC.
