   Was fail safe a satire?

   • When Fail Safe opened in October 1964, it garnered excellent reviews, but its box-office performance was poor. Its failure rested with the similarity between it and the nuclear war satire Dr. Strangelove, which had appeared in theaters first, in January 1964. Still, the film was later lauded as a Cold War thriller.
