A REMINDER ABOUT WHAT DANGERS THIS ADMINISTRATION IS BRINGING TO US:

“About 47 minutes after the button is pushed, the reality will bite. Maybe 2 minutes for those in range of a sub.

The missiles aren’t in Kansas anymore - Looking Glass duties transferred to another platform.”

President Ronald Reagan watched the film more than a month before its screening, on Columbus Day, October 10, 1983. He wrote in his diary that the film was “very effective and left me greatly depressed,” and that it changed his mind on the prevailing policy on a “nuclear war”. The film was also screened for the Joint Chiefs of Staff. A government advisor who attended the screening, a friend of Meyer’s, told him “If you wanted to draw blood, you did it. Those guys sat there like they were turned to stone.” Four years later, the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty was signed and in Reagan’s memoirs he drew a direct line from the film to the signing. Reagan supposedly later sent Meyer a telegram after the summit, saying, “Don’t think your movie didn’t have any part of this, because it did.”

6 MIN VIDEO CLIP FROM The Day After Nuclear Attack Scene

I remember this movie. When I hear the name, "Jason Robards", I think of, "THe Day After". In that clip, I saw Stephen Furst (Flounder from Animal House) and John Lithgow.
