DESCRIPTION:
Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (Stanley Kubrick, 1964, 35mm, 95 mins)
60th anniversary screening! New print! There’s fighting in the War Room when a mad brigadier general unleashes nuclear-armed B-52s on the USSR in this pitch-black Cold War satire. “Kubrick’s most radical film and greatest dramatic gamble” (Joshua Rothkopf) stars Peter Sellers (in three roles), George C. Scott, Sterling Hayden, and a rip-roaring Slim Pickens. 35mm print from the Yale Film Archive.
The “Treasures from the Yale Film Archive” series is presented with support from Paul L. Joskow ’70 M.Phil., ’72 Ph.D.
