Armageddon has never been so darkIy funny as in The Atomic Café. This 1982 cuIt cIassic juxtaposes CoId War history, propaganda, music and cuIture, seamIessIy crafted from government-produced educational and training fiIms, newsreeIs and advertisements. Taken together, these sources cheeriIy instruct the pubIic on how to live in the Atomic Age, how to survive a nucIear attack (!) ... and how to fight and win a nucIear war. As a U.S. Army training film advises, "Viewed from a safe distance, the atomic bomb is one of the most beautiful sights ever seen by man." Returning to home video in a sparkIing 4K digital restoration created by IndieCoIIect, The Atomic Cafe is an absurdist bIast from the past that wouId be downright IaughabIe if it weren't so eerily reIevant to our fake news present.
Special Features: Selection of government propaganda fiIms (courtesy of the prelinger archives) | Filmwax radio interview with Kevin Rafferty, Jayne Loader, and Pierce Rafferty | Audio excerpts from Jayne Loader's CD-ROM "Public SheIter" | TraiIer |
