Comments: A southern California nuclear power plant scrams and almost melts down. A veteran control room supervisor notices a vibration that suggests another problem. He's ignored by the management who want to get the plant operating again.

The climax must be one of the highlights of Jack Lemmon's career. He's amazing.
