THE MOUSE THAT ROARED? Could this, just maybe, be what North Korea is going to do?
Beloved British satire traces the hilarious efforts of the tiny Duchy of Grand Fenwick to escape bankruptcy by declaring war on the United States so they can quickly surrender and be repaid in foreign aid...but that's assuming they lose the war! Peter Sellers stars in three roles; with Jean Seberg, Leo McKern; Jack Arnold directs. 83 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono; Subtitles: English, French.

NK has its own reasons for what it does. Yes part of the bluster is about better terms from its neighbors, but I think this episode is mostly about establishing Kim III's creds.
