Description

A valuable cross-cultural study that explores an array of well-known and, in some cases, undeservedly forgotten atomic bomb films to make clear how deeply nuclear preoccupations penetrated the mass culture of the nation that developeed and first used the bomb and the nation whose citizens first experiences the bomb in all its devastating power.
