Dr Strangelove

Post by cricketfieldclarets » Wed Apr 19, 2017 1:56 am

Is there a film that is more relevant today than even at the time of its release than this?

Great film. But seems very similar to the current political world we live in!

I haven't seen it in an age, odd film if I remember.

All Kubrick films are complicated and reveal more with added viewing. Another very relevant film for nowadays is 'Eyes Wide Shut' it certainly creeped me out.

That's a good call by the OP; I can just imagine trump riding a nuke into oblivion.

It is a very odd film. Bit i had read and heard so much sbout it I had to watch it. To be honest i found it fairly easy to 'get' but that said its still a very mad film.

I think this is more relevant today. Explains a lot of things. A bit gruesome in parts.
