- Synopsis:
- In this futuristic film about a totalitarian government takeover in the USA. Newly formed militia / freedom fighters begin to do battle against Nazism, which has developed in the US rather than 1930's Germany. This is a fascinating look at an alternate American history, with scary and interesting social implications. This is an amazing ABC Made for TV movie that originally aired in 1968 about an alternative government coup de tat. Gene Hackman and Marc Strange star in this great adaptation and loose interpretation of Sinclair Lewis' 1936 novel and stage play 'It Can't Happen Here'. This is an excellent made for TV movie dealing with a highly volatile subject.
