Magazine for film and theatre fans. De Film-Wereld, the first Dutch film magazine for the general public, had been published since 1918. In 1921, it was renamed Cinema & Theater, which existed until 1944.[1] Before the war, the magazine offered purely light-hearted entertainment; during the war years it was decidedly pro-German.[2] Victor Kugler regularly took the magazine to Anne Frank.[3] According to him, Cinema & Theater was the only one of its kind that was "nicht von der Nazi-Propaganda verseucht".[4] However, the magazine did contain advertisements from the Deutsches Theater in den Niederlanden, bearing swastika emblems.[5] The magazine also placed advertisements for 'Strengthening Sports Camps' and the 'Germanic Land Service'.[6]
