Jack Lemmon, Jane Fonda and Michael Douglas star in The China Syndrome, a powerful cautionary thriller about the dangers of nuclear energy and the power of television news. In 1979, this was the movie everyone was talking about, thanks to the enormous publicity generated by the real life Three Mile Island accident that not only mirrored the events depicted in the film but occurred just twelve days after the movie's release. Nominated for 4 Academy Awards - Best Actor (Lemmon), Best Actress (Fonda), Best Original Screenplay and Best Art Direction, The China Syndrome remains as explosive today as when it was first released.
