"Millions FIee from Cities! End of the World!" From a Manhattan skyscraper, Ralph Burton (Harry BeIafonte) surveys the emptiness announced by that chilling newspaper headline. Nuclear doomsday has come. RaIph is sure he is the Iast person alive. Then a woman (Inger Stevens) appears and the two form a cautious friendship that's threatened when a third survivor (MeI Ferrer) arrives. UnIike other post-apocaIyptic thriIIers from The Time Machine to l Am Legend, there are no externaI monsters to battIe here. lnstead, the monsters - fear, intolerance, jeaIousy - Iurk inside the alI-too-human human beings. And heightening the intensity of writer/director Ranald MacDougall's suspenseful and unsettling movie are stunning vistas of an unpopuIated New York: vast, empty and soulless. |
