PANTSLESS
Today's film was the documentary
which will scare the pants off you. It points to our wandering attention to the nuclear threat.
This is not new for me.
I was a "duck and cover" kid waiting for the blinding flash. I spotted the sky for Civil Defense to see if any Russky planes were coming. I laughed nervously while Dr. Strangelove explained nuclear deterrence from his wheelchair.
Now, again, in this film, the despair in reaching zero weapons and the terrible need for it is presented. The presentation is pretty good. Very slick.
Obama is working on this. It is very difficult. The terrorist bomb and the proliferated weapons race is still on in countries we hardly have relations with.
And so on.
Is it a worse threat than global warming? Does it beat a mega virus from sweeping across the world? Take them all in. We live in very risky times.
But then in the olden days some bastard on a horse could sweep down and kill all the people and burn the village. We haven't evolved much. The world is a very risky place.
Just live your life.
I will give this a 3 out of Netflix5.
