:35:00
. . .you know how we've always talked
about the possibility. . .
:35:03
. . .of something going
wrong with the bomb.
:35:07
The bomb, Dimitri.
:35:10
The hydrogen bomb.
:35:12
Everything wonderful
about that movie. . .
:35:16
. . .is because of the way
it was directed.
:35:19
Otherwise, I thought there were flaws
in the writing of the movie. . .
:35:24
. . .and flaws in some
of the performances. . .
:35:27
. . .but the directing of the movie
was so bravura. . .
:35:32
. . .and so superb that it just,
it was just a knockout.
:35:37
The vision and the use of music
of the opening credits...
:35:42
We knew immediately anything
could happen in this movie.
:35:56
People remember the film because it
deals with one of the darkest things. . .
:36:01
. . .of the postwar period,
the idea that hanging over us. . .
:36:05
. . .was nuclear oblivion. This is the
time of the Cuban Missile Crisis.
:36:09
It can't have possibly got
closer than those few days. . .
:36:14
. . .where one mistake by either side
could have started World War III.
:36:19
This piece of satire just hit it
right on the button. . .
:36:23
. . .and it was frightening.
Very, very frightening.
:36:26
Well, now, what happened is. . .
:36:29
. . .one of our base commanders,
he had a sort of. . . .
:36:33
Well, he went a little funny
in the head.
:36:36
You know, just a little funny.
:36:41
He went and did a silly thing.
:36:44
Well, I'll tell you what he did,
he ordered his planes. . .
:36:49
. . .to attack your country.
:36:52
Well, let me finish, Dimitri.
:36:55
Let me finish, Dimitri.
:36:58
Well, how do you think
I feel about it?
