Brave New Jersey

On the sweltering autumn night of October 30-31, 1938, the small New Jersey town of Lullaby was thrown into chaos by Orson Welles' infamous War of the Worlds radio broadcast, leading millions to believe the U.S. was under attack by Martians. In Brave New Jersey, a wickedly funny comedy takes creative liberties with this true event, weaving in local legends and real-life reactions to the broadcast, all set against the backdrop of small-town America's panic and bewilderment.
