Agreed, on both counts.

I understand that Fonda was pissed about the Good Doctor coming out in February of that year, months before Fail-Safe did.

I loved Walter Matthau as Edward Tell-- er, someone kinda famous at the time.

Best of both worlds .. or the end of them as it were


I heard that , but in the end it takes nothing away for his version.. only that Fail Safe is in that lesser known level of movie history ... that's what I created this series for .. the hidden gems

And yeah , for a dramatic role , Matthau was a scene stealer

IT and Dr. Strangelove where based on the same book, as I recall. Saw them both, and thoroughly enjoy them.

Yeah, a lot of them really slip through the cracks. Especially with Strangelove (which I submit, is the version I prefer, though it IS one of my all time favorites) coming out at the same time.

Thanks buddy!  You and I both do our part to help lesser known movies find an audience!

I saw this one!  Kind of a freaky ending which I won't give away... but... Really???  I mean... if you broke the 'promise'... who would know???!

Well.. I guess ' they' ( no spoilers either ) would notice if It 'didn't' happen by their own means in time.  I agree it seems like.. " Are you freaking kidding?! '' but consider the heat of the moment in how things could have gone all out for both sides without a sacrifice.

That was an interesting movie.  Not a typical American ending.  'Dr. StrangeLove' is very good.  "There will be NO fighting in the War Room!!!
