One of my favorites....

Rating: 10/10 (16 March 2003)

I'm a huge Kubrick fan (Which has amused my mom and also disturbed her... since I"m also a huge fan of Clockwork Orange) And Dr. Strangelove is my favorite movie of his. Just the idea of making a comedy about nuclear annihalation during the Cold War was a bold move, and it paid off in full as perhaps my favorite Comedy of all time.
However, lets not forget who really steals the show in this movie, Peter Sellars taking the part of three roles, and he does all three well, with my favorite being of course Dr. Strangelove himself (Mien furhrer.... I CAN WALK)...... with the last line of the movie (Being the one I Just quoted) truly memorable and one of my favorite sound bites to quote when I'm in a goofy mood. George Scott also does a good over the top job. A Kubrick Masterpiece which was nominated for afew Academy Awards.. I don't think it won any which is really a shame. Maybe not best picture... but Sellars should've gotten the best actor nod at the last... now that I think of it.. best picture would've been nice also. It's all good though.
I've watched it with some of my friends and some have liked it and some have not. Regardless though.. I give this film a try.... Kubrick at his best
