...and special early show
4PM, Sat., Sept. 8 
The Man Who Saved the World 
by special request we are running last week's show: The Man Who 
Saved the World for those who missed it or want to see it again. 
 
"Few people know of Stanislav Petrov... yet hundreds of millions 
of people are alive because of him." 
 
The Man Who Saved the World tells the gripping true story of 
Stanislav Petrov - a man who single-handedly averted a fullscale 
NUCLEAR WORLD WAR, but now struggles to get his life back 
on track... before it is too late. 
 
The film is half documentary, half reconstruction. As Russian 
actors play out the events and the tragic story of what happened 
next to Petrov, the film-makers follow the real Petrov, now a 
crotchety alcoholic haunted by the past, as he visits the US with his 
young translator in tow in order to receive an award by the United 
Nations and to meet his all-time favourite actor: Kevin Costner. 
 
An epic and grand Cold War thriller that sends shivers down your 
spine and shows us just how close we came to Apocalypse ... and 
it's not over yet! With a NEW COLD WAR rising and thousands of 
nuclear weapons on hair-trigger alert, we still live under the same 
catastrophic danger that Stanislav faced back then. 
 
"...this account of a Cold War near miss deserves a wide audience." 
- Daniel Gold, New York Times
