Trinity And Beyond: The Atomic Bomb Movie (Full Frame, Collector's Edition)

DVD, 92 minutes, GOLDHIL

WITNESS THE INCREDIBLE HISTORY OF AMERICA'S DEVELOPMENT OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS. Renowned special effects filmmaker Peter Kuran (Star Wars, Star Trek II & V, Robocop, Addams Family) dedicated over three years of the production of this amazing film which chronicles the top secret, strange and visually compelling history of the design, production and testing of the Atomic and Hydrogen bombs by the United States. In addition to uncovering rare film from top secret government archives, Kuran traveled far and wide to obtain startling footage of nuclear bomb test conducted by China and the largest atomic explosion ever detonated by Russia. The quality of the images is remarkable and required a development of a new Academy Award winning film restoration process to preserve these haunting images for generations to come. Narrated by William Shatner, this award-winning production features an original score performed by the Moscow Symphony Orchestra and an interview with Dr. Edward Teller, a developer of nuclear weapons and one of the most controversial figures of the 20th century. Whether being exploded under the ocean, suspended by a balloon, being shot from a cannon or even detonated in space, these weapons are capable of devastating destruction. Trinity and Beyond is an extraordinary production and provides important understanding of events that changed the world forever. DVD ROM, Interactive Menus, Scene Selection.
