Review of Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964) by Sean C — 17 Feb 2012
Not the best of Kubrick, but in this classic of his; we see what an extraordinary director he was and will continue to be. Like every Kubrick movie, we see is great eye for the technical arts (He always delivers such a great direction of photography, and does a great job of moving backgrounds for the time it was made).
The acting wasn't the best I've seen from Kubrick's films but Sellers (In his tri-role) and Hayden both really stood there parts in their unethical roles. The screenplay wasn't what I expected, but it did deliver a good sense as to what the title means and show what could happen from nuclear war in a comedic way.
UPDATE: After dwelling on this film, I see its significance more and even more so, the genius mind of the man named Kubrick. I still don't think that it's his best work (2001: A Space Odyssey, Paths Of Glory, Dr.
Strangelove...).
