How the U.S. Narrowly Avoided Nuclear Disaster at an Arkansas Missile Complex

A Titan Missile from Robert Kenner's documentary COMMAND AND CONTROL, opening September 14 at Film Forum.

One misstep at a Titan II missile complex in Arkansas in 1980 nearly led to a nuclear disaster. In “Command and Control,” director Robert Kenner and writer Eric Schlosser present minute-by-minute accounts of the deadly accident, and film expose the management of America’s nuclear arsenal.

"Command and Control" opens on Wednesday, September 14th at Film Forum (209 W. Houston Street). Robert Kenner and Eric Scholosser will be doing Q&As following the 7 p.m. shows on Wednesday the 14th, Friday the 16th and Saturday the 17th.
