The Atomic Cafe

And now , for something wholly different . While not about atomic major power per se , this 1982 film travesty America ’s atomic civilization by string together quondam newsreel and archival footage . The consequence is a yarn - less video montage that elucidates the outlandishness and absurdity of the 20th century ’s nuclear zeitgeist . It ’s a self - cognisant send - up of films like Duck and Cover .
