In the 1950s, when nuclear tensions were at an all-time high, the hands of the Doomsday Clock moved to 11:58 p. m., as close to midnight as they've ever been. The world had a brand-new obsession-how to live with the threat of the bomb. Hollywood responded by introducing moviegoers to a cast of misfit monsters released from polar ice and submarine canyons, and coolheaded scientists whose weapons were knowledge and reason. Today, with the threat of nuclear war only slightly reduced, Godzilla the king of sea monsters and a metaphor for nuclear war-is making a comeback to star in his first animated film. What is the primary purpose of the passage? A : To show how indestructible movie monsters of the 50s were
B: To examine how an ongoing fear was explored in the medium of film
C: To assert how horror movies of the 50s are not relevant to today's world
D: To explain the political reasons for nuclear war​
