Dr. Strangelove: Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb is a famous and critically acclaimed 1964 film directed by Stanley Kubrick and starring Peter Sellers and George C. Scott. That movie was itself based on an earlier novel by Peter George, Red Alert, which featured similar elements of a nuclear escalation between the two superpowers as the result of a rogue General. Dr. Strangelove explores themes of warfare, power, the culture of the military, patriotism, and the mindsets that were pervasive during the Cold War. The Kubrick film is considered one of his finest works and has repeatedly been named one of the best comedies ever made. It was selected as one of the first films preserved in the National Film Registry in 1989.
