So bad and propagandistic that makes it a classic!!


And worth to watch. An average "Joe", USA citizen, who takes his "freedom and rights" for granted, has a dream of a Soviet takeover of the USA [and no nuclear war?]. And found the town somewhat changed, and his family also somewhat cold and distant. And brainwashed. Telling him of their "social conscience" duties, Russian soldiers entering his home without a warrant and the church turned into a "Socialist museum". And when he protested, he is arrested, tried, and sentence to death as a "traitor". Much I hated the anticommunist histeria of those days, I highly recommend this short with Jack Webb [yes, "Mike Friday" of the classic "Dragnet" cop show of the 1950s to 1970s]. And this classic short you can find it in "1950s" newsreels in a dvd box. And maybe you can also find it in "You Tube". Don't miss it!
P.S.: I hated it to the point of liking it!
