Nominated for four Academy AwardsĀ® including Best Picture (1964), Stanley Kubrickās black comedy about a group of paranoia-inspired, war-happy generals who manage to initiate an āaccidentalā nuclear apocalypse, is horribly frightening, delightfully funny and surprisingly relevant to this day. This is the saga of two psychotic generals: Joint Chief of Staff āBuckā Turgidson (George C. Scott) and Air Force Strategic Commander Jack Ripper (Sterling Hayden), who orders a bomber squadron to attack the USSR, triggering a Soviet secret weapon, the āDoomsday Machineā, a diabolical retaliatory missile system. Peter Sellers portrays a trio of men who attempt to avert this catastrophe: British Captain Lionel Mandrake, the only person with access to paranoid Gen. Ripper; U.S. President Muffley, whose best attempt at diverting this disaster depends on convincing a boozed-up Soviet Premier itās all a silly mistake; and the Presidentās advisor, Dr. Strangelove, a demented ex-Nazi scientist. Can any one of them possibly save the world?
