Er, I mean, no musical score! Ooops!

The ones with no sound track are run Sundays (Actually, Monday morning) at
midnight!

I remember when I was about 13-14 they did (I think it was CBS) "Fail Safe
Live", as it was written for the stage. Wanna talk realism?

They redid the Live version again just a few years ago (10? )

Are you *sure* it's the same book? The stories are quite different and
then there's this:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0057012/fullcredits#writers

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0058083/fullcredits#writers

"Red Alert" for Dr. Strangelove and naturally "Fail Safe" for the
other.

The story clearly changes, but Fail Safe was directly based on the book
of the same name, and Dr. Strangelove is in many ways a parody of that
book.

Watch the two back to back for severe brain-twist.

Have you *read* both *books*? Hollywood has a long history of changing
stories to meet their competition at the box office among other reasons.
I have doubts whether the master would do it, And they both came out in
the exact same year.

I see your point, but you're challenging direct proof with logical
argument. Show me a link that shows *your* point.
