There’s a nuclear war movie called Testament that I really liked. A very young Kevin Costner and Rebecca DeMornay are in it.

Yes, that one was pretty good. So was a late-'80s HBO movie called Miracle Mile, with Anthony Edwards.

"Miracle Mile" was clever. For the first half hour, you think you're watching a romantic comedy, and then with Denise Crosby's phone call in the restaurant, it turns into something very different. The scenes shot on Wilshire Blvd. were very effective.

That is a great movie although the near-hopelessness of their attempts to escape and the ending did make me sad.

I spent most of my life dealing with the pressures of nukes and nuclear war and I tend to like feel good movies now. Happy endings are a treat for me after so many years of heavy stress.
