This brought back memories!
I was 12 in 1962. I was a Navy brat who was always new in school. So I didn't talk much to other kids. It is very interesting to me that in the movie there were other kids besides me, like Sandra, who didn't believe that duck and cover would do any good. And kids who wondered what would happen if they were in a fall-out shelter with a member of the opposite sex. I remember thinking if it were my last day on earth, I would definitely kiss the boy. (The fall-out shelter scene in this movie was pretty tame, to reply to another thread in this board). I had never heard of this movie before today, and I'm very glad I got to see it On Demand.
