映画『13 DAYS』から。
In October 1962, the Kennedy administration struggles to contain the Cuban Missile Crisis.
キューバ危機におけるケネディ政権内部の話。

このビデオでは、最後に数秒出てくる大統領役(Bruce Greenwood)の堂々した格調高い英語が印象的。
Gentlemen, for the last 15 years, I've fought here at this table alongside your predecessors in the struggle against the Soviet.

Respects only one word—Force.
If the sun comes up tomorrow, it is only because of men of good will. And that's all there is between us and the devil.
