Summary: Diplomat
Comment: I use the Cuban Missile Crisis to teach decison making in crisis situations and have read numerous accounts and watched a variety of videos/DVDs on the subject including the movie 13 Days and the recent excellent DVD The Fog of War (based on the reflections of Robert MacNamara). This hugely disappointing ''documentary" is certainly the worst thing I have seen on the subject. Documentary is really the wrong word - while there is some original footage (with a rather tedious narrative giving a standard account of events) there is a significant amount of irrelevant "filler" made up of an odd collection of people simply recollecting what they were doing during the crisis.
The video is also in stark, and rather sad contrast to an execellent recent BBC documentary that draws on archive material from the former Soviet Union to present the Russian and Cuban perspective on the crisis.
My advice: save your money!
