Mainly something that explores the events before the US entered the war and delves into the pressure that the US was getting to enter the war

TIA

Night Will Fall


***Correction, this really doesn't have much to do with what you want. But it's still a great documentary. Sorry.

Life Goes To War: Hollywood and the Home Front (YouTube) -- 1970s TV special hosted by Johnny Carson
quote:

this two hour documentary shows us how Hollywood went to war on the home front with their own army of technicians, special effects people, directors and of course, a gallery of stars who's deeds and actions during those bleak times not only helped lift the morale of the people, but packed a wallop with those serving overseas that was more powerful than any gun.

William Wyler's 'Memphis Belle' released in 1944 is considered the best WWII documentary.

'The Valiant Years' 26 half hour episodes about Churchill released in 1961 is awesome.
