The Wednesday Play - Season 2 Episode 1 The War Game
Written, directed, and produced by Peter Watkins. Depicting the aftermath of a nuclear war, it was withdrawn from the broadcast schedule due to fear by the BBC and the British Government that it was too horrifying for TV. It premiered at a London cinema six months later and was shown at film festivals, winning a special prize at the Venice Film Festival. It then won the 1967 Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature.
