Saw it about four tine on tee vee (TV Guide alwsys called it "'Dr. Strangelove' without the laughs," which was to damn with faint praise) before I got the DVD; I've watched that six times or so. Outstanding performances all the way around, including from a young Larry Hagman as translator Peter Buck.
