Check out “The Bedford Incident” with Richard Widmark.
“If they fire one...”
That is a chilling one too...Widmark and Poitier at the very end is classic, knowing what’s coming.
I forgot I had this movie in my archives and just watched it again. Very good movie. I have almost all of the movies mentioned here. Forgot that Wally Cox was in this movie. Poor guy sure got typecast.
Special Bulletin I do not have. That one did touch on terrorism a little, though it was homegrown. The acting in this one was so-so though. The way media covered events was attacked in this movie.
Dr. Strangelove is a classic though a dark comedy. Same year as Fail Safe, one of Fonda’s better ones (not counting westerns).
I saw that one on TV when I was kid. Sometime around 1980.
It’s only with hindsight that I understand that even the local stations would sometimes try and stay “topical” with whatever they could afford to show as their matinee.
