In 1959 Hollywood came to Melbourne. Respected producer and director Stanley Kramer ventured down under with leading stars Gregory Peck, Fred Astaire, Anthony Perkins and the glamorous Ava Gardner to shoot his film On The Beach about the end of the world. Kramer's film was a big budget adaptation of Neville Shute's cautionary doomsday novel set in the aftermath of a nuclear war that had devastated the northern hemisphere. A poisonous radioactive cloud was slowly drifting southward, and the population of Melbourne were fated to be amongst the last survivors left on earth. They had about five months left, and their lives were overshadowed by the pall of the inevitable death. Drawing upon extensive archival footage and some clips from the actual film as well as production material, Australian film maker Lawrence Johnston (Eternity, Night, etc) has assembled a fascinating, intelligent and very informative behind the scenes documentary about the film and the controversy it caused. But Fallout also offers a detailed portrait of author Shute as well, and describes in detail how he was very critical of some of the changes Kramer had made to his novel. Kramer was well known for the social issues he had explored in many of his classic films like The Caine Mutiny, High Noon, The Defiant Ones, etc, and he wanted to deliver a potent anti-nuclear message with the film. Not only is this terrific documentary a look behind the scenes of the making of a historically significant film, it is also a study of the impact the bomb has had on the 20th century as well. Johnston places the novel and the film in its historical context against the backdrop of the nuclear age and the very real fears of mass destruction in the age of nuclear proliferation. There are revealing interviews with Kramer's widow as well as Shute's daughter, and author and journalist Gideon Haigh, who provides a wealth of information about Shute, who was one of Australia's most successful authors, and his background. Johnston's material unfolds in clear and chronological fashion that makes for fascinating viewing. And local audiences will get a buzz out of seeing some historical footage of the streets and sights of Melbourne at that time. The title itself is very clever.
