Overview

The Missiles of October is a 1974 docudrama made-for-television play about the Cuban missile crisis.

The teleplay introduced William Devane as John F. Kennedy and cast Martin Sheen as United States Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy. The script is based on Robert Kennedy's book Thirteen Days: A Memoir of the Cuban Missile Crisis.
