Dal libro di E.R. May e P.D. Zelikow The Kennedy Tapes. Inside the White House During the Cuban Missile Crisis, sceneggiato da David Self. Strana idea quella di imbastire un docudrama di suspense sul possibile scoppio di un conflitto nucleare (che poi non avvenne) quando nell'ottobre 1962 a Washington si venne a sapere che a Cuba i sovietici stavano installando basi missilistiche e il presidente John F. Kennedy si trovò per tredici giorni (16-28 ottobre) davanti a diverse opzioni. L'azione del film dove, all'inizio, si ricorre al bianconero per storicizzare gli avvenimenti si svolge in gran parte nella ̜stanza dei bottoni della Casa Bianca. (Morandini).
