C
Explanation :
While the BMPA did make suggestions regarding the content of wartime films such as reminding audiences of the stakes and portraying the Axis powers as evil, they did not require films to be directly approved by the Office of War Information. This was a function of the War Activities Committee of the Motion Picture Industry.
