directed by Judy Irving and Chris Beaver
USA 1982
I’m probably supposed to say that this nuclear alarmist documentary from 1982 seems out of date today. After all, it’s the 21st century now, and all the doomsayers who claimed that the human race couldn’t survive in the nuclear age have been proven wrong: the bomb hasn’t been dropped on anyone (at least not in a war) since 1945. Mutual assured destruction has been proven right, nuclear proliferation really does make us all safe.
Theatrical Release: Oct 8, 1982 (NY Film Festival)

Comments: |
The transfer is non-progressive, and the image
quality can generously be described as mediocre. I suspect much
of the blame lies with the source print.
The DVD lists "Interview with the Filmmakers" as an extra, but I
couldn't find any interview on the disc. |
