On the Beach

On the Beach - An interesting if depressing look at life after the last war - not WWII mind you, but the one that luckily never came. Most of the story is told from Southern Australia where the Nuclear Winter has been held off by winds and currents. Unlike the Mad Max films, this one deals with how people react to change that will eventually lead to death. This is also an interesting film to remember the 'good ole days of the late 50's Cold War.' I would recommend this one to those who like thoughtful, if unspectacular, movies.
