English docudrama filmed during the Cold War and black and white to illustrate the effects on the British population in the event of a nuclear attack. Both the narrative structure as the skits are very effective at any time laughable, despite nearly half a century since its completion. Both the script and the invoice technique and interpretation (due to amateurs, all non-professional actors) are commendable, supported by a perfect recreation of what could be a catastrophe of this magnitude.
Also his 48 minute extract the essential help of the story, without getting lost in technicalities or older philosophical circumlocution, so the narration of the facts - a first half of commissioning and final situation developing tragedy with enough crudeness - make "The War Game" a film as teaching it as enjoyable. An almost mythical mockumentary about a nuclear holocaust that does not disappoint in any way and has not lost the least effective today.
