 * Here are your seminar questions for** __**Thirteen Days:**__

What surprised you about the film? relationships? The way decisions were made? Etc.

Write down in your notebook the 5 most crucial moments in the crisis in your opinion:

How do you think President Kennedy is presented by the film?

Do you think that there were other measures or options that might have been taken at various points that might have alleviated the situation more quickly?

What motives were at work in the EXCOMM room?

Khrushchev, of course, knew that the United States would never allow the missiles to remain in that position. Ultimately, what do you think Khrushchev wanted?


 * Choose one of the members of EXCOMM (not JFK, Bobby, or Kenny) and think about what sorts of motivations and agendas they may have been trying to advance. **

Based on reliable internet sources (and they are abundant) create a timeline of the 13 days that includes only the most significant information.
