Oscar® winner George Clooney (Syriana, Ocean's Thirteen) and Emmy nominated Noah Wyle (ER, Librarian: Quest For The Spear) head an all-star cast in this tense and powerful Cold War thriller performed live on network TV (CBS). An electrical malfunction prevents the Pentagon from stopping a pilot (Clooney) whose jet has been mistakenly ordered to drop nuclear bombs on Russia.
