This week’s weekly video is one of my absolute favorite that I have downloaded from the Internet Archive. I’m talking about the classic Civil Defense and preparedness film, Duck and Cover.

Be it the catchy tune, the look into the culture of the early 1950s, or the advice it gives so sincerely that we now think to be almost pointless. Regardless of whether you saw this as a child or have never seen is, I highly recommend this film to everyone - for the entertainment vales alone.

From the description:

Selected for the 2004 National Film Registry of “culturally, historically and aesthetically significant” motion pictures.

Famous Civil Defense film for children in which Bert the Turtle shows what to do in case of atomic attack.
