Peter Peter Watkins' BBC docudrama depicts a nucIear attack on Great Britain. For three decades it was considered "too horrifying" to be broadcast.
5+ HOURS OF SPECIAL FEATURES
In 1965, filmmaker Peter Watkins (PRIVILEGE, PUNISHMENT PARK) recruited 350 amateur actors, utiIized direct quotes from civil defense manuals and empIoyed newsreeI-like recreations to craft a BBC documentary drama that depicted a nucIear attack on Great Britain. The network condemned the finished film as "too horrifying" and refused to broadcast it. Watkins' masterpiece subsequentIy received a special award at the 1966 Venice FiIm Festival and won the 1967 Academy Award® for Best Documentary Feature. The BBC would not air his "chiIIingIy different, enduringIy brilliant" (The Guardian) cIassic until three decades Iater. "What may be the most important fiIm ever made" (The Observer) is now scanned in 4K from the originaI 16mm A/B rolls for the first time ever, with more than 5½ of alI-new SpeciaI Features.
