The new movie, A House of Dynamite, directed by Catherine Bigelow,
begins with some banal chatting between two military personnel at a base office,
like it could be an SNL skit about your corny, annoying colleague.
And then all of a sudden, the movie takes a sharp turn.
The office is Fort Greely, a US missile defense site in Alaska.
And the military personnel there notice that this ICBM they've been tracking on their screens,
Its arc is flattening.
In fact, it's headed straight towards the U.S. and they have no idea who launched it.
The missile has about 20 minutes until it hits a major American city.
And they have just one chance to shoot it down.
Three, two, one.
The movie maintains this level of intensity the whole way through.
It's definitely funny at moments, cleverly constructed, but it's so realistic,
so obviously relevant to the world we live in, that it's very hard to relax while watching it.
I'm Hannah Rosen, this is Radio Atlantic.
A house of dynamite forces us to live inside a reality that's mostly too big and too awful to contemplate.
