Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb 1964 In a bipolar world, the international relations system built on very fragile balance sheets is heading towards a difficult conclusion, including the use of nuclear bombs, as a result of the purely subjective evaluations of the American general. The film delivers very subtle messages as part of the general's attempt to correct his mistake, who later turns out to be sickly broken. All the while, you'll wonder how a movie set in only three locations managed to get you excited. This is a masterpiece that never gets old.
