Just about the most suspenseful for its time
I'm referring to the classic Richard Widmark movie "The Bedford Incident" (sorry that I have no link to it). Amazing how many folks I've talked to who think it was a true story! Very well acted, cold war suspense with a not-so-happy-ending.

Ive seen it numerous times and it's one of the best Cold War "thrillers" out there!
You're right, the ending is surprising and not so happy!
