Atomic Cafe

Atomic Cafe was an interesting movie that depicted human beings in a bad light and criticized them for constantly going to war. The stupidity of the Cold War was demonstrated in this movie as both sides started to use nuclear weapons and wound up hurting each other more. The movie showed this idea with clear allusions to the stupidity of believing that hiding in fallout shelters will save you from a nuclear weapon. Throughout the movie, we see the tests the government took to see the power of the nuclear weapons and the total destruction these weapons devastate. This movie shows us that if we start a war with these weapons, we will all die. However, when this movie was made, the message was supposed to be that of reassurance that fallout shelters can save you and your family. It's very interesting to see the massage of the film change throughout the years without the film being changed. This was definitely one of the est documentaries I have seen.
