Frank Perry – Ladybug Ladybug (1963)
quote:
During the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, the normal routines of a rural elementary school are thrown into a panic when the civil defense alarm sirens go off, warning them of an imminent nuclear attack. The children are separated into groups, with one teacher leading each squad. Mrs. Andrews, the 6th grade teacher with a slowly building sense of doom, leads her group of students through the countryside to one of the children’s family’s bomb shelter. When they arrive at the shelter, they divide the rations and assume various duties, not knowing if they are in the middle of a nuclear holocaust—or if it was a false alarm.

hi there, would it be possible to reupload this film please? thanks
done..
Thank you for posting a few Frank Perry films. He seems to be, like Bryan Forbes, a vastly underappreciated and too often dismissed filmmaker. ‘The Swimmer’ really divides viewers, but seems to gain recognition as it ages. Hopefully you will eventually post ‘Last Summer’ and ‘Play It As It Lays’ which are two of his best hard-to-find films.
I was told about this one from someone who went to school in the 1950s ‘duck & cover’ era. Highly recommended.
Thanks again!
