    I have a trauma response to that movie because my dad is a veteran who was heavily propagandized during the cold war, though he served during “peace time.” He used to get belligerently drunk and would watch that movie cranked up loudly enough to keep most of the house awake and yell about the Ruskies…I did learn how to sleep through plenty of loud noise because of it at least. (thankfully, he’s sober again AND much less pro west, still have to deal with deprogramming some random things but he’s getting better little by little now) Because of the experience I had as a teenager, I struggle to bring myself to even watch that movie again (and refuse to watch the remake because it looked like hot garbage in the previews)
