Dr. Strange Love- Scarier Now Than Ever?

Topic started by Minhaj on Oct 2, 2006 6:27:30 pm

Faizan’s review of ClockWork orange reminded me of Mr. Kubrik’s Dr. Strange Love. One of my favorite films. I thought about how the film plays on the idea of a break down in communication between America and the Soviets. So then I thought we are in a worse situation these days because there is no coummunication only blurry video tapes and people like George asking us to trust him. Shit.

kim jon il apparently has gone for the first take as Dimitri.. ah-mad-inejad is also creating quite a buzz using his agent Mehdi for the role..

Strangelove is indeed ahead of its time, so much so that it still feels relevant. The scene I can’t get out of my head is where the German, right at the end, puts up his hand and says ’Hail Hitler’ or something...that was hilarious!
