This is a very cool picture, is it not? It's a still from "Atomic Alert" (1951), a short film designed to scare the bejeebers out of grade school children over the soon-to-come World War III. (This still is Mrs. Satan's Sin's favorite screen saver, btw.) This film can be seen on the Prelinger Archives. One can stream or download it here: http://www.archive.org/movies/details-db.php?collection=prelinger&collectionid=36438 After viewing the clip, most strongly recommend putting in "atomic" or "cold war" in Prelinger's search function. Lots of old movies from this era. My personal fave is "A is for Atom." |
