【内容介绍】

整部《原子咖啡厅》可说是美国政府对人民说过的关于原子弹的谎言大全，全片都以五、六○年代美国政府的宣导片和新闻片为素材，如今看来，政府的无知和愚民手法，一方面让人好笑，一方面也提醒观众，不要太信赖官方说法。

《南方四贱客》这个嘲谑刻薄的卡通影集，电影版早于去年变轰动欧美，电视版戏谑嘲讽的力道不下电影；上周末那集叙述南方公园镇后方的火山即将爆发，政府放映一段宣导片，教大家灾难来时只要「蹲下，盖起来」﹙Duck & Cover﹚就可以自救，几个镇民照做了，结果被岩浆烧成骷髅。

这段情节看在美国人眼里，更能会心一笑，因为它谑彷美军在1952年拍的原子弹爆炸防护宣导片，当年美国政府确实是教导人民，原子弹爆炸时，只要「蹲下，盖起来」就可以躲过一劫！这支宣导片被剪进一部名为《原子咖啡厅﹙Atomic Cafe﹚》的纪录片里，因而广为流传，成了美国家喻户晓的笑话。整部《原子咖啡厅》可说是美国政府对人民说过的关于原子弹的谎言大全，全片都以五、六○年代美国政府的宣导片和新闻片为素材，如今看来，政府的无知和愚民手法，一方面让人好笑，一方面也提醒观众，不要太信赖官方说法。

这样的纪录片一方面幽默嘲讽，同时具有明确的批判色彩，颇受观众欢迎，早已成为西方国家常见的纪录片类型。九月要举行的台湾国际纪录片双年展，除了会放映这部《原子咖啡厅》外，另选映一部同属此类型的纪录片《哈草﹙Grass﹚》，该片用官方资料显示西方国家政府如何将大麻塑造成可怕的毒物。

台湾在戒严时代有无数宣导保密防谍、反攻大陆、消灭台独之类的影片，若有人有兴趣找出来剪成一部纪录片，一定很有趣。

On it's 20-year anniversary, and not a moment too soon, The Atomic Cafeis back to provide us with a much needed release of comic energy. A dark comedy in the truest sense, this timeless classic took the nation by storm when it first debuted in theaters in 1982. The film recounts a defining period of 20th century history and serves as a chilling and often hilarious reminder of cold-war era paranoia in the United States - artfully presented through a collage of newsreel footage, government archives, military training films, and fifties music. Profoundly shocking and perversely topical, The Atomic Cafe craftily captures a panicked nation, offering a fascinating and witty account of life during the atomic age and resulting cold war, when fall-out shelters, duck-and-cover drills, and government propaganda were all a part of our social consciousness. Regarded by critics as "a nuclear Reefer Madness" and likened to Stanley Kubrick's Dr. Strangelove, this profoundly shocking and highly amusing film is a stunner, a gripping account of an unforgettable era and an indisputable "must-see" for all Americans.
