DR. STRANGELOVE OR: HOW I LEARNED TO STOP WORRYING AND LOVE THE BOMB (1964) - First Time Reaction

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (known simply and more commonly as Dr. Strangelove) is a 1964 political satire black comedy film co-written, produced, and directed by Stanley Kubrick. It is loosely based on the thriller novel Red Alert (1958) by Peter George, who wrote the screenplay with Kubrick and Terry Southern. The film, financed and released by Columbia Pictures, was a co-production between the United States and the United Kingdom. Dr. Strangelove parodies Cold War fears of a nuclear war between the United States and the Soviet Union and stars Peter Sellers (portraying three different characters), George C. Scott, Sterling Hayden, Keenan Wynn, Slim Pickens, and Tracy Reed. The story concerns an insane brigadier general of the United States Air Force who orders a pre-emptive nuclear attack on the Soviet Union. It follows the President of the United States (Sellers), his scientific advisor Dr. Strangelove (Sellers), a Royal Air Force exchange officer (Sellers), and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (Scott) as they attempt to stop the crew of a B-52 from bombing the Soviet Union and starting a nuclear war.

Peter Sellers Being There is an awesome watch with a lot of subdued social commentary humor, great contrast with Dr Strangelove energetic in your face humor. Both masterpieces!

One of my favorite jokes in the movie is a very subtle one. The centerfold model in the Playboy the pilot is looking at (who I think is Miss Scott, Gen. Turgidson's "secretary") has her rear end covered by an issue of Foreign Affairs, which is the leading foreign policy publication in the US.

I try to avoid fun facts and trivia but I love The Who too much not to be the first. This was filmed at Shepparton studios in 1963. In 1978 The Who filmed their set for Jeff Stein’s The Kids are Alright which included their performances of Baba O’Reilly and Won’t Get Fooled Again. Ridley Scott was at the same time filming Alien at Shepparton and the cast took a break to join the crowd to watch The Who and someone really dug their lasers and got the idea to borrow them for the opening derelict spaceship scene. I’m not sure if this was before or after Jon Finch (from Hitchcock’s Frenzy and Polanski’s MacBeth) was replaced by John Hurt. Any chance you could react to that Won’t Get Fooled Again Shepparton clip? All you Millennials dig it. And it’s got a good beat and is easy to dance to. And Roger is so hunky. Now that’s a Taxicab Confession.
