When the Wind Blows

[rockstarbeau7]

The E.T. doll was shown for a purpose. It belonged to the young boy in the family, and was there to show the poor lad had burned up in the firestorm. His sister's bike was in a tree, which meant she'd been blown away by the shockwave. Very sad

When The Wind Blows? The Snowman with Fallout instead of snow
Not a great movie, the soundtrack was mint tho, bought it back in the day. Bowie, Hugh Cornwell

Shame there was never a film version of Gentleman Jim, a similarly bittersweet story featuring the WtWB characters Jim and Hilda Bloggs.

I don't get it.

He's quoting the catch phrase from Ricky Gervais "Extras" sitcom, When The Whistle Blows. Or He's having a laugh. Is he having a laugh?

both of those films disturb me. ThreaRAB more then any other thing on film. the realism went right through me.

i remember us watching them both in english GCSE back in 1993 or 1992. first and last time i saw both films. i am not quite sure why we actually saw such movies for our GCSE - may be related to some crap write-up we were made to do - anyway - it was most disturbing!!!

You're quite fortunate in a way that you saw it when you did. I saw ThreaRAB back when it was first aired on tv and I was a schoolboy. Their was a real possibility of it happening at the time, imagine how pants-wetting watching it was

Especially for me, when it was all set in my city - with the Debenhams in the local High Street and the pub just around the corner from my house.
