The night the world made headlines.

Our modern press deck for the film is still in production, but the story of Grover's Mill already has one of the most famous press archives in broadcast history. On October 30, 1938, Orson Welles' War of the Worlds radio broadcast turned a quiet New Jersey town into front-page news around the world. These are the original clippings, editorials and photographs from the days that followed — the press coverage that inspired this film.

Journalists and programmers: our contemporary press kit will drop with the festival premiere — email biggerpicturestudio@gmail.com to be added to the release list.
