Witty & Relevant

Rating: 7/10 (25 December 2010)

I haven't watched many movies from the 60's but found Dr. Strangelove to be witty & relevant. The conflict was an interesting situation birthed by Cold War paranoia and I was surprised by the hilarity of it all. It was interesting to note the limitations of technology & the part that played in a crisis involving the future of the entire planet! I also enjoyed the lackadaisical attitude the General had toward the whole thing and his typical American fear of the (at that time the "Rooskies")Commies.
(I also finally found the sound clip the band Passifist used on their song Christ of the Nuclear Age!)
