Overview

The Missiles of October is a 1974 docudrama made-for-television play about the Cuban missile crisis. The title evokes the book The Guns of August by Barbara Tuchman about the missteps among the great powers and the failed chances to give an opponent a graceful way out, which led to the First World War. The teleplay introduced William Devane as John F. Kennedy and cast Martin Sheen as United States Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy. The script is based on Robert Kennedy's book Thirteen Days: A Memoir of the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Overview

Docudrama, en formato miniserie, de 1974, sobre la crisis de los misiles en Cuba. El título evoca el libro de 1962 "Las armas de agosto", de Barbara Tuchman, sobre los pasos en falso de las grandes potencias y las fallidas oportunidades de dar a un oponente una salida elegante, lo que llevó a la Primera Guerra Mundial. La producción, deslumbrante donde las haya, presentó a William Devane como John F. Kennedy y a Martin Sheen como el Fiscal General de los Estados Unidos Robert F. Kennedy. El guion se basa en el libro de Robert Kennedy, publicado póstumamente en 1969, "Trece días: Memorias de la crisis de los misiles en Cuba".
