Ladybug Ladybug (1963)
Quietly Horrifying

We stumbled across this today on This Network about 10 minutes into the film. The alarm had just begun to sound. I am surprised that I had not heard of this film, as I am a fan of Cold War Americana.
I really appreciated the way in which all of the fear and uncertainty was portrayed, and the whole cast was very believable, the kids in particular. As someone who grew up in the shadow of the A-Bomb, I could relate to every one of the characters.
The heart-rending climax will leave you feeling like you were punched in the stomach - a sign of any great message film. Watch it if you get the chance.
