"The man who saved the world" is eye-opening and it actually made my eyes tear up several times.
It's compelling filmmaking and a fascinating story with which all human beings should familiarize themselves.
A Cold War thriller that shows us just how close we came to World War III … and it's not over yet! With a new cold war rising and thousands of nuclear weapons on hair trigger alert, we still live under the same catastrophic danger that Stanislav faced back then.
I left the theater feeling that it is one of the best documentaries I have ever seen.
