In 1932, Herman J. Mankiewicz-who would become famous ten years later for his screenplay for Citizen Kane-wrote The Mad Dog of Europe, an anti-Nazi project depicting the destruction of a German-Jewish family at the dawn of Hitler’s rise to power. This visionary script was ultimately buried by Hollywood studios, caught between diplomatic pressure and economic interests, and was never produced. Its story resonates powerfully with the increasingly dangerous fractures of our own time.
