The "China Syndrome" movie had the incredible good fortune to come out right before the REAL THING: Three Mile Island. The Three Mile Island incident was similar enough to the movie that a lot of comparisons were drawn between the two. No doubt many people thought they were one and the same. And we all know what happened to construction of new nuclear power plants after Three Mile Island. Since the China Syndrome movie and the Three Mile Island incident were intertwined in the mind of the public, it's probably fair to say that the movie had considerable influence on nuclear power development for the next twenty years.
I remember reading a column by George F. Will in US News and World Report right after the movie came out. He went into great detail how this could never happen. He got to eat his words a few days later when Three Mile Island came along.
