The Science Fiction Movie That Took 8 Years To Make

Kevin Brownlow and Andrew Mollo's 1964 alternate history movie It Happened Here is a hidden gem of science fiction cinema.

Boldly audacious, it should be on every genre film fan's bucket list.
For those complaining that this film isn't science fiction, here are some definitions of elements of science fiction from Wikipedia.

Science fiction elements can include, among others:

Temporal settings in the future, or in alternative histories.

Spatial settings or scenes in outer space, on other worlds, in subterranean earth, or in parallel universes.

Aspects of biology in fiction such as aliens, mutants, and enhanced humans.

Predicted or speculative technology such as brain-computer interface, bio-engineering, superintelligent computers, robots, and ray guns and other advanced weapons.

Undiscovered scientific possibilities such as teleportation, time travel, and faster-than-light travel or communication.

New and different political and social systems and situations, including Utopian, dystopian, post-apocalyptic, or post-scarcity.

Future history and evolution of humans on Earth or on other planets.

Paranormal abilities such as mind control, telepathy, and telekinesis.
