Miramax are going to make a movie about the Palomares incident here in January 1966 when the mid-air collision of two United States planes led to the release of four nuclear bombs over Almería province.
None of the bombs exploded. Two were recovered intact from the sea.
The film will be called ‘Thank You, Bob Openheimer’ and will be turned into a romantic drama, focussing on the United States soldier who is sent to the Andalucian fishing village after the bombs have fallen, where he starts a romantic relationship.
As soon as I confirm Brad Pitt’s booking in the apartment I’ll post the dates here.
