This movie takes place in the inner circle of JFK's (Greenwood) White House as news of a missile in
Cuba creates an atmosphere of fear and danger, as seen through the eyes of Kennedy's Chief of Staff
(Costner). Will the U.S. become locked in a nuclear war with a threat so close to its border?
Very well done...accurate, interesting, and draws you into the characters and their struggles.
This movie was well documented. I have used it to illustrate to my U.S. History students the dangers the U.S. has been submitted to. We also discussed the response of the U.S.
Superb acting by the entire cast, thrilling to see what really happened!
