Subject: SL-1 & the Truth
While it's true this film is quite open and detailed, it was not declassified for more than 20 years after the incident. The fact that it is "revealing" means nothing in that it wasn't made public at the time of the incident.

Subject: An amazingly candid report
Considering the time -- the 1950s -- this film report is exceptionally candid about the vulnerabilities of nuclear reactors. This first civilian reactor accident was especially gruesome in that one of the reactor operators was shot into the ceiling by an expelled reactor vessel plug and control rod. Views of the internal wreckage are fascinating. The cause of this accident has never been determined, although operator error has been alleged -- even a possible suicide by one of the operators.
Documentaries of this quality are rare in the U.S. nuclear community, at least for the general public.
