In the book, the McGuffin is a book, not a film, and there's not really any implied parallel universes or anything. It's just a work of speculative fiction that some guy in the neutral zone wrote. In the Amazon series, the film reel comes across as a full on parallel universe artifact, especially given how nearly impossible it would be to fake a film in the 60s. Of course, if they had kept it as a book in the Amazon series, it wouldn't work as well. I'm interested in seeing the explanation for the origin of the film reel. Could it not be that the film reel is from their world, where the Allies were winning the war (and the reels hadn't been shown to the public yet), but the Nazis and Imperial Japan created the atomic bomb first? I've read too much "Nazis win" alternative history but in a lot of it the Axis builds the bomb first and nukes DC, London, and Moscow and then Bad Things Happen.
