Popcorn Culture - Throwback Tuesday: Dr Strangelove

Often hailed not just one of Stanley Kubrick’s best films, but one of the greatest films of all time, Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, satirises fears around the Cold War that swirled in the 1960s. Featuring a stellar turn by Peter Sellers in multiple roles, the 1964 movie is set during a nuclear conflict between the Soviet Union and the US. We review the film, and discuss the finer points of black comedy.
