Can anyone help me remember the title of an 80's (maybe early 90's) sci-fi movie? The movie starts off with a girl walking by a payphone in the middle of the night. The phone rings, she answers it and a frantic guys tells her he has accidentally shot a nuclear bomb to the US. Obviously, he had dialed the wrong phone number. The rest is vague in my memory but I think after the call she goes into a cafe accross from the payphone, orders a coffee and tells some people present at the cafe about what she has been told. The movie basically follows her through this night and ends in the bomb's arrival (I think). If it helps the girl is wearing black leather jacket and is a typical 80's rocker chick. (Again if I recall correctly). Thanks! I hope someone remembers this obscure film. It may have been a Sci-Fi Channel origianal but who knows.

I believe you must be thinking of Miracle Mile (http://www.amazon.com/Miracle-Mile-Anthony-Edwards/dp/B00004WI6H) from 1989, starring Anthony Edwards and Mare Winningham.
