MARCH TO ALDERMASTON

Made anonymously by a committee
(including Lindsay Anderson), GB 1959,
33 mins [Cert tbc]

Narrated by Richard Burton, this film was a vehicle for the message of the first Aldermaston March in April 1958, displayed on banners and plackards: ‘Ban the Bomb’, a message that was taken up around the world.

At the end of the march, 10,000 gathered in a field opposite the plant to hear Michael Foot, Cannon Collins and others speak of the evil being manufactured there. The committee’s film journalism and lyrical style reflect the differing backgrounds of the TV and film documentarists, while capturing the conviction and humanity of the marchers.

Discussion led by Kate Hudson, National Chair of CND
