Sinking of the Lusitania (1915) - 10 min
The sinking of the Lusitania helped turn public opinion against Germany and helped to bring the U.S. into World War I. This animation is a recreation of the event.
This is an early silent film with added music soundtrack. It is a splendid example of early documentary animation (with a dose of propaganda thrown in).
