Greetings Comrades. I am an old. At the end of AP history when I was in high school, my teacher showed us this film: Atomic Cafe. Made in 1986, it only uses media from midcentury America, news broadcasts, commercials, and propaganda/training films, to create a narrative of the cold war and an image of the mania and delusions that gripped this country. I know it has been posted here before, but it's been awhile, and maybe some one new can see and appreciate it.
god damn, no wonder boomers are so fucked up
i hate to think how I might have turned out growing up in that media complex
