Trivia
Final film as a producer for Richard Brooks and penultimate film for him as both a writer and a director. His last film as a writer and director would be Fever Pitch. See more »Goofs
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): (At 34:00) The design of the suitcase bombs is shown to President Lockwood. The bombs are said to contain plutonium, but the design shown fits the uranium bomb (the cannon design), not plutonium bomb (the fission sphere design) - a very distinctive difference President's aides should know.
