There seemed to be a particular spike in nuclear-war paranoia in the early 1980s, probably having to do Reagan's finger being on the trigger.
Whatever the cause, it resulted in two particularly powerful 1983 films on the subject: the made-for-TV The Day After and Lynne Littman's Testament, which had a theatrical release before playing on PBS's American Playhouse.
Starring Jane Alexander (and Kevin Costner in a cameo), the film shows what happens to a suburban family in the Pacific Northwest after a nearby nuclear attack.

Littman must also be congratulated for not resorting to grandstanding gimmicks or overblown idealism to make her case.
Thankfully, Littman is a filmmaker who understands that such cruel content goes down better without a lot of ham-fisted bravado and ear-piercing preaching.
Even Littman is more evenhanded here, almost as if the material brings out the best in her activism.

C'est durant cette période trouble, en 1983, que Lynne Littman réalisa pour la télé "Testament", film qui raconte la vie dans une petite ville de Californie après une attaque nucléaire.
Lynne Littman a réussi, et cela, sans effets spéciaux, méchants à haïr et gros discours idéalistes, à nous concocter un film anti-guerre et anti-armes nucléaires en allant à l'essence même de l'homme, qui veut que, même confrontés à l'inévitable, l'instinct de survie prédomine.
Le second documentaire intitulé "Testament: Nuclear Thoughts" nous offre le cours d'activisme et de morale que Lynne Littman avait si judicieusement su éviter en tournant son film.

 Testament
Director Lynne Littman has created an effective, understated portrayal of the cost of a nuclear war in human terms, in a film as far removed from the fake hyperbole of action and disaster movies as the natural world is from cartoons.
Set in the small California town of Hamlin, the Wetherly family and their everyday concerns open the story.
As these individuals and the children cope with day-to-day existence, there is never any intrusion of overt horrors, the focus remains on the individuals and the way in which they adjust to the inevitable.

 CultureDose.net - Lynne Littman - 1983 - Testament Movies Review
With continual threat of war against Iraq in the air and talk of weapons of mass destruction, Lynne Littman's Testament beckoned from the Public Library archives.
Despite its theatrical nature, the devastating film about life after nuclear holocaust holds up twenty years after its release and should be required viewing for George Bush and all other world leaders that have the power to unleash nuclear weapons.
What establishes Littman's film as superior treatment of the subject matter is the way she gradually builds the disaster the way most would experience the horror, facing the unknown with dignity but without an overly false sense of hope.
