  Apocalypse Television - How The...

  David Craig, Robert Iger

  On November 20, 1983, a three-hour made-for-TV movie, The Day After, premiered on ABC. Set in the heartland of Lawrence, Kansas, the film depicted the events before, during, and after a Soviet nuclear attack with vivid scenes of the post-apocalyptic hellscape that would follow. The film was viewed by over 100 million Americans and remains the highest rated TV movie in history. 
   
   
   
  The path to primetime for The Day After proved nearly as treacherous as the film's narrative. Battles ensued behind the scenes at the network, between the network and the filmmakers. But these skirmishes pale in comparison to the culture wars triggered by the film in the press, alongside a growing Nuclear Freeze movement, and from a united, pro-nuclear Right. Once efforts to alter the script failed, the White House conducted a full-throttled propaganda campaign to hijack the film's message. 
   
   
   
  Apocalypse Television features a dramatic insider's account of the making of and backlash against The Day After. No other book has told this story in similar fashion, venturing behind-the-scenes of the programming and news divisions at ABC, the backlash from the conservative movement and Religious Right, the challenges encountered by the film's production team, and the experiences of the citizens of Lawrence, Kansas, where the film was set and shot.

  INCEPTION 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY CHRISTOPHER NOLAN 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Inception is a mind-bending science fiction thriller directed by Christopher Nolan. The film follows Dom Cobb, a skilled thief who specializes in "extraction," stealing secrets from within a person's subconscious during dreams. Cobb is offered a chance to have his criminal past erased if he can perform the impossible: "inception," planting an idea in someone's mind without them realizing. To achieve this, he assembles a team and navigates multiple layers of dreams within dreams. The movie explores themes of memory, guilt, reality, and the power of the subconscious, blending action with deep philosophical questions about perception and identity. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Christopher Nolan has said that the snow-based third-level dream was inspired by his favorite James Bond film, On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969).” 
    
  “Joseph Gordon-Levitt performed all but one of his own stunts during the famous hallway fight scene, which took place in a spinning hallway.” 
    
  “According to cinematographer Wally Pfister, Warner Brothers executives suggested making this movie in 3D, but Christopher Nolan rejected the idea, claiming it would distract from the storytelling.” 
    
  “Leonardo DiCaprio was the only choice for the role of Cobb, according to Christopher Nolan and producer Emma Thomas.” 
    
  “Christopher Nolan first pitched Inception to Warner Brothers after completing his third film, Insomnia (2002), and received approval. However, the movie wasn't written at that time. It took nearly eight years to complete the script.”
