		What Winkler fails to realize is that every film he cites was produced after 1892 and thus after the widespread use of the Pledge of Allegiance to the U.S. flag, and it’s original straight-arm salute.
		The salute was then used in famous films in the early 1900's, often in fictitious "Roman" scenes, and including a film that involved D'Annunzio entitled "Cabiria" and written of elsewhere.
		According to Dr. Martin Winkler in "The Roman Salute on Film" of the American Philological Association, the salute is not in any Roman art or text.

		Winkler cites the American Ben-Hur (1907) or the Italian Nerone (1908), although such films did not yet standardize the salute or make it exclusively Roman.

	Case Study 2: Lorena Bobbitt and Thelma and Louise
		For example, The Boston Globe ran under the heading, The Great Debate over Thelma and Louise, two opposing columns, one by a woman defending the film and one by a man attacking it.
		The film does not leave the viewer with this suicide scene, however.
		Thelma and Louise combines the genres of buddy films and on-the-road stories; it is an outlaw film with the twist that the outlaws are two women.

	Triumph des Willens (1935)
		Nazi propaganda chief Josef Goebbels is reported to have seen a copy of the short film and was outraged beyond reason, leaving his screening room kicking chairs and screaming profanities.
		The legions of marching soldiers, as well as Hitler giving his Nazi salute, were made to look like wind-up dolls, dancing to the music.
		Ultimately, this is not a film to be seen in a vacuum; were this the only thing a person knew about Nazis, one would get a very, very incomplete view.

	Forum -> The one finger salute
		Surely fingers must pop up after you have said goodbye to the car especially if you tuck the film under a tight very wet rubber.
		The situation may have been made worse by the application of heat with both hair dryer and heat gun but at no stage during heating were there any signs of the one finger salute.
		The film was metal and slow to dry being not of a NR variety.

	CELLULOID - NACHTKABARETT.COM
		The term 'Swing Heil', which is chanted by the Swing Kids in the film was a mantra used by the Swing Kids of the 30's, and sung by Manson in the title track of The Golden Age Of Grotesque, to belittle and mock the Nazi Party's 'Sieg Heil' salute.
		The film is very dark and erotic in dealing with the sadomasochistic relationship of the former captive and capture which they renew, both to the dismay and reluctance of both, upon their reunion.
		When this film debutted in Paris in 1930 it caused riots on the street and was subsequently banned for 50 years because of its viscious attacks against The Church and upper classes.

		The Matrix Revolutions ends as the film trilogy began with a salute to faith that is comfortable in the face of mystery, firm in its resolve to see things through, and propelled by choices that make all the difference.
		Tender Mercies is a remarkable film about a country and western singer, a widow, and her son who try to drive away the shadows of the past in order to become strong in the broken places of their lives.
		In America is one of the best films of 2003 with its soulful and buoyant portrait of a poverty stricken Irish family's winning battle to move beyond the wrenching, contradictory, and chaotic emotions of grief into a new life in Manhattan.

	Internet Archive: Details: Story of a Star, The
		A fun filled salute to Nylon stockings, er, I mean Agilon stockings is shown here in this most beautiful film to show off their latest breakthrough.
		The lingerie saleswoman we see at the end of the film (who probably wears sturdy support hosiery since she stands all day) is going to have to come up with her own sales pitch.
		The film's inane talk about Ã‚Â“the beauty zoneÃ‚Â” and Ã‚Â“the comfort zoneÃ‚Â” isnÃ‚Â’t going to cut the mustard with female customers who will suspect that these stockings are overpriced and flimsy.

	Glitter
		And when she leaves Beesley, she does so with her cat, which the film had ignored since a very early scene when Mariah is nine.
		Glitter is a salute to all that makes Marah a super-duper star.
		It says, why try to get such a little detail right when a good performance or original character would only detract from the film's message: talent and integrity are not necessary for success.

	Filmtracks: Wing Commander (Kevin Kiner/David Arnold)
		Wing Commander isn't a score that will be remembered in the history of film music as anything significant, but it makes for some great fun when you're in the right mood for exhilarating space adventure music.
		Undoubtedly, the producers of the film requested that Kiner produce music that is, essentially, Arnold in sound, size, theme, and instrumentation.
		From the opening brass salute in Arnold's overture to the "Big Damn Ending" (as they put it), complete with all the bells, whistles, and synth chorals, this score will keep you on your toes.

	The American Film Institute Salute to James Cagney (1974) (TV)
		And, just to be accurate: in the 1932 film "Taxi!", Cagney said to actor David Landau: "Take that, you dirty yellow rat!" That's the closest he ever got to speaking the line he "never" said.
		Each year since 1973, the American Film Institute has given its Lifetime Achievement Award to a prominent film star or director.
		This very enjoyable tribute to Cagney alternates between film clips (from his many movies) and live tributes from some of Hollywood's greatest stars.

	Film Threat - Reviews
		Including a dip into comic racism with a musical salute to Lincoln's Birthday featuring Bing dressed in comic blackface, and actress Louise Beavers as his round, Aunt Jemina-like housekeeper who proudly sings to her kids: "when black folks lived in slavery/ who was it set the Darkie free?"
		The idea behind Paramount's "Holiday Inn" couldn't be simpler nor more "old Hollywood" -- the musical tale of a simple crooner (Bing Crosby) who spars with his flashy dancing rival (Fred Astaire) at a holiday-themed nightclub in the sticks.
		In fact, I'd argue that "Holiday Inn" is more Fred's show than Bing's -- spinning graceful floor routines and a classic firecracker tap for the Fourth of July that doubles as obvious patriotic wartime fare.
