Peter Watkins has made some pretty amazing films over the years. The War
Game (about the effects of a nuclear war) was commissioned by the BBC in
1964/5. Then they refused to show it - too scary.
His website has disappeared but there is this
http://www.mnsi.net/~pwatkins/
"This Canada-based Web site, in two parts, contains the text of Peter
Watkins' latest critical media statement [Aug 2003], along with detailed
information regarding each of PW's films and their current availability."
