GERMANY SURRENDERS IN ITALY [ETC.]
1945 · National Archives and Records Administration (via FedFlix)
Finding Not asserted
Not asserted: the record does not name the creating body; its local identifier places it in NARA record group 208 (Office of War Information), a federal agency's records, which is evidence of federal origin but not proof of authorship, since agencies also filed acquired and captured footage (it belongs to the series 'Motion Picture Films from "United News" Newsreels', which may hold captured or acquired footage as well as government productions).
The record does not name a federal creating body, or names one alongside a private producer, a state body or a government corporation. Such a film may well be a government work, but this registry only says so when the record does.
