April 5: A for

The one that got bombed by Strangelove.

Both Lumet's Fail Safe and 's comedy came out in 1964, right after the . The world was awash with the realisation that the bomb, The Bomb, wasn't merely proverbial flexing. And when crisis happens, there are two options. One is to laugh, the other is to grasp. Sadly for Lumet, and the world, his Fail Safe was released while everyone was still too busy chuckling.

Finishing touches on my 70s paronia list.

Network (1976) by Sidney Lumet always was one of my all time favorite movies, though I have not rewatched it in a while.

But is it a 70s paranoia movie?
Does it belong on this list or does it not qualify?
It has some strong conspiracy going on the third act.
What do you guys think?

3 and 1/2 hours of O'Neill's . Directed by . Some of the best filmed theater ever with stellar performances. 3 and 1/2 hours and I was lost in the play and forgot about time and its passing. As with many artists, has a tendency to tell the same story over and over again, packaging it in different settings. And that's all right. Slightly different dimensions are explored. This one is about as rough as it gets. The murder of hope.
