The War Game (1965) Nuclear Holocaust Short-Film Originally Banned in the UK

Few films have caused such controversy as Peter Watkins' THE WAR GAME, a drama documentary made for BBC TV in 1965 about a 'limited' nuclear attack on Kent, England. Blending fiction and fact to create a moving and startling vision of the personal as well as the public consequences of such an attack, Watkins exposes the inadequacy of the nation's Civil Defense programme and questions the philosophy of the nuclear deterrent. Conspicuously absent from TV screens until 1985, it was mainly through cinema release in 1966 - and its Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature in 1969 - that it gained a loyal and vociferous following, providing a sharp focus for CND and other peace movements.

Yes this is excellent.


For your library (try to have them get it) The War Game and Colloden are relaed as two short Peter Watkins films.


"La Commune, Paris 1871" is available here on OBT. I keep that one going permanently.
