On the Beach Ending Scene

The ending scene from the classic movie of 1959, On the Beach. After a nuclear war, Australia is the last inhabitable place on Earth until the radiation comes. This shows the characters final goodbye's before they die. The last minute shows a very depressing view of a deserted Melbourne. Look for Ava Gardner, Gregory Peck, Fred Astaire, Anthony Perkins and Donna Anderson

@dancinkindofguy the sub men at the end were likely planning to consume the suicide tablets once they got back to the u.s./ i think the suicidal aspect is creepy regardless of whether the person goes back to his home country in order to do it. to me, the thought of someone committing suicide is far creepier than the thought of someone dying as a result of what someone else did. furthermore, i don't think large numbers of people would commit suicide. i think most people would see it through.

@coventrygardens Think I'd rather do in myself than go die of radiation poisoning, which is pretty slow and horrible.

it makes suicide under these circumstances look like a good choice, and yet they didn't address the question: "what happens to them after they commit suicide??"

@dancinkindofguy the submariners were nostalgic. they wished to go off & die in the u.s.a. because that's where they lived. this ties in around 2:00 where Gregory Peck's character says that the men wish to get home ( to the u.s. ). in a previous scene, the submariners arrived in san francisco, & they saw that the place looked normal except that there were no humans ( i don't know where the dead bodies were ), & then one of the men dived into the bay so he could die in his home country or town.

@Texasjim2007 You don't remember Mutually Assured Destruction? I think when the radioactive dust clears, you won't want to be around. The earth will regenerate over time, however. We'll be just another extinct species that shit in its own nest.

We had such promise but we're collectively so stupid.

[dancinkindofguy]

So where do those guys in the sub think they are going? They're just delaying the inevitable..

There is no place to go and save themselves.

@Texasjim2007 this is a what if book it was during the cold war and that created the.nuclear war scene of the. one bomb any bomb that gose of will start the nuclear holocaust

Survival rule number one: never take advice on what you need to do to survive from anyone who believes the human race is overpopulated because they want you to die not survive so they'll tell you to do stupid things to get yourself killed. The only people you can trust are people who have material self-interest in your survival like military retirees who need you to live long and prosper to pay our pensions.

There were Japanese survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, one man was even miraclously able to survive both. The leftwing unilateral disarmament propaganda machine Stanley Kramer was just a greedy Communist collaborator with wants us to believe that they're are our brothers but what they want is population reduction so they can rob graves like George Soros made money doing collaborating with the Nazis robbing Jews and only dislike atomic bombs because that'd' destroy the property they want

[Texasjim2007]

This movie is utterly nonsense on multiple levels, First of all there was never any nuclear war because America was never stupid enough to unilaterally disarm and let Communists kill ua like 20 million unarmed Ukrainians. Secondly Dr. Strangelove's plan for underground shelter

survival makes way more sense no matter how difficult than leftwing cyanide koolaid solutions.
