I've just ordered a DVD of the film Threads (gritty 1984 BBC nuclear apocalypse), and I realise I don't even know whether I want to watch the whole thing!

I've seen clips and it must be the most bleak and harrowing film I've heard of!

(My life spans the Cuban missile crisis, Stanislov Petrov bravely arguing with his soviet superiors, Four Minute Warning sung by Mark Owen, and so on...)

more re: the about the battle between and highlanders

I've never seen such realistic-looking actors and depictions of battles. (Their teeth alone!)

Also amazed by the staccato rhythm of facts presented.

Black and white film, with actors looking into the camera and being interviewed at times.

All in all, it's a short docudrama of the battle, and well-worth seeing in light of contemporary imperial warfare.

Going with Alan J. Pukula's classic telling of The Washington Post's investigation of the Watergate saga, All the President's Men (1975) (Also, a proud owner of a thrift store copy of the movie edition of the Bernstein / Woodward book here!) Here's a new portrait of Dustin Hoffman as Carl Bernstein for today's prompt!

“Unhappy with the limited structure of league newsreels, , a splinter filmmaking collective, produced a MARCH OF TIME-type series under the banner THE WORLD TODAY. Only two episodes were released, the first premiering with Strand’s THE WAVE (1936). This one, like NATIVE LAND, addresses in America.” - Bruce Posner
