War games was incredibly unusual too. The script writers, this was their first screenplay, they had no idea thay no one in hollywood cared about technical accuracy in scripts and spent a whole lot of time trying to get the tech details correct.

Also, not sure if you missed it, but Manhattan Project was part of the trifecta for me from that era that fed my desire to grow up to do intellectually difficult things.
