When the Wind Blows (1986)

Based on Raymond Briggs’ 1982 comic book of the same name, When the Wind Blows tells the bleak and unrelentingly tense story of a doddering elderly couple who must survive a nuclear bomb dropped in rural England. The film is heavy-handed in some of its imagery and especially its music—arranged by Roger Waters of Pink Floyd—but in spite of these shortcomings, it manages to strike all the right emotional chords and succeeds surprisingly well.
