What are some state funded films/art pieces/songs/etc. that are good enough to get brainwashed by?

Battleship Potemkin is probably the most obvious example. Any film nerd will tell you that it established a lot of editing techniques like the montage and cause and effect, but it was a soviet revolutionary film made to demonized the government.

Pollock and Rothko were also funded by the funded by the CIA to exemplify the free will of Americans and scare the soviets or some ****.

I also think that the American national anthem is a good song.

Any other examples?
