Tracking the making and release of 1983's "The Day After." It is the controversial, most-watched made-for-TV movie ever. Starring Jason Robards, JoBeth Williams and John Lithgow and directed by Nicholas Meyer ("Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan"), "The Day After" dramatized the effects of a nuclear bomb on the ordinary American people. The film's producers had no idea of the obstacles and opposition they would face while creating it, or of the enduring impact it would have once broadcast.
