Hehe none of you actually think this film is for real though right?

They did say to duck and cover, but what else would they say? Stand up straight and take your radiation like a man?

lol
nice one
sounds like a propaganda from the 50's

it was propoganda from the 50's. i've seen the actual movie. it suggests things like hiding behind a wall, or anything really, ducking low to the ground and covering your head when you see the flash of an A bomb.

we can laugh at it now. but it was cutting edge propaganda at the time. what the hell else were they gonna tell us. there had to be some glimmer of hope. ahhhh, if only we were so naieve now as we were then.
