A study of the human mind in the midst of a paranoid atomic apocalypse. Comedic and as timeless as its creator, "Dr. Strangelove" is a marvel of comedic cinema. With outstanding performances by Peter Sellers, Slim Pickens, Keenan Wynn and George C. Scott, this film allows us to see the darker side of comedy while indulging us in a beautifully light and lovingly constructed cinematic treasure.

Great performances from Peter Sellers (playing 3 characters) and George C. Scott, and excellent comedic writing. A must watch for film lovers!

This film, without a doubt, was interesting to analyze both from a cultural and international relations standpoint. The premise, of course, is the failure of the Deterrence Theory, and MAD becoming a true thing. Only Kubrick could deliver a film as serious and as hilarious as this, and I wish that the sequel had been made as planned.
