Your Commie has no regard for human life. Not even his own.

I am amazed that I had not seen this Stanley Kubrick classic before yesterday. I may not have appreciated it before, but it certainly is one of the best comedies ever produced. Even the title ranks among the funniest ever written.
Beside the outstanding film Stanley Kubrick (2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange, Full Metal Jacket) has written and directed, there are stars that shine brightly throughout.
Peter Sellers (Being There, The Pink Panther) was nominated for another Oscar for playing three roles in this film. He was just outstanding. George C. Scott (Patton) was over the top as Gen. 'Buck' Turgidson. Sterling Hayden, Keenan Wynn, and Slim Pickens all turned in outstanding performances. Who will forget that final ride that Pickens made. Yee Haw! This is the definitive film showing just how ridiculous the cold warriors were. A must see.
