"The Day Called X" (1957) Nuke attack on Portland! - REEL Cold War History

Описание: Fascinating U.S. Department of Civil Defense "how-to" film on surviving and evacuating a nuclear blast by dramatizing a hypothetical attack on Portland, Oregon. The entire city is evacuated in anticipation of a nuclear air raid, after Soviet bombers had been detected by radar stations to the north; it details the activation of the city's civil defense protocols and leads up to the moment before the attack (the ending is left intentionally unknown).

Hosted and narrated by actor Glenn Ford. Other than the actor, everyone else in the film are the actual officials from Portland working in their actual roles. Produced by CBS Public Affairs, in co-operation with the Federal Civil Defense Administration.

Originally released on December 8, 1957.
