THE BRINK OF WAR is the most historically faithful political drama I’ve seen in years. October 1986. Two men with every reason to hate each other sit in a house on the Icelandic coast and decide whether the world ends. Gunn wrote it from the declassified transcripts, and dedicated it to George Shultz. Jeff Daniels, Jared Harris, and J.K. Simmons are magnificent. Congratulations to the entire producing team — this is serious, first-rate filmmaking. #thebrinkofwar
