Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964)

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, is a film so permanent you don’t even know how much influence it's had until you've seen it. This satirical take on the Cold War is both hilarious and terrifying thanks to an impeccable attention to detail, terrific performances, and more than one scene that will stick with you forever.

United States Air Force Brigadier General Jack D. Ripper (Sterling Hayden) has done the unthinkable and single-handedly declared nuclear war against the USSR. With foolproof safety precautions preventing further orders from reaching the planes approaching enemy territory, his executive officer Group Captain Lionel Mandrake (Peter Sellers) desperately searches for a way to recall the attack. Meanwhile, the President of the United States (played by Sellers again) attempts to prevent the incoming catastrophe with the help of his advisors and the mysterious Dr. Strangelove (Sellers one more time).

The film begins with an assurance that what takes place here could never happen in real life. This statement is about as convincing and reassuring as a friendly dinner invitation from Hannibal Lecter. No detail is spared when showing us the codes, secret envelopes, radio signals, and equipment that form this air-tight mechanism designed to prevent wrong orders from reaching the planes. These planes - always in the air and always ready to strike - ensure that if the Soviet Union decides to strike "the free world" retaliation will be swift. But what happens when a jingoistic lunatic decides that counterattacking isn’t good enough? It could mean a long-lasting nuclear winter that’ll wipe out all humanity. If not, it could be the much-needed catalyst to usher us into an era of global peace. That’s, of course, if General Ripper can be prevented from damning us all.

So thorough is this exploration of mutually-assured nuclear destruction that only repeat viewings will allow you to appreciate the humorous side of this scenario. Like so many boneheaded attempts by the Soviet Union and the U.S.A. to one-up each other during the Cold War, Dr. Strangelove is funny in hindsight but in the moment it makes you sweat buckets. The suspense is intensified by how many people fail to realize how close they are to complete annihilation. That, in turn, is what makes it so funny. Seeing Captain Mandrake sit back and try to remain calm while he’s listening to General Ripper’s rambling logic, General Buck Turgidson (George C. Scott) trying and spin the scenario into something positive for the President, witnessing the clearly insane Dr. Strangelove (who isn’t actually in the film all that much) propose a solution in case war does break out makes you want to jump into a straightjacket… until you realize your side of the screen is perfectly safe.

There are so many memorable elements in this film. Dr. Strangelove and his Alien Hand Syndrome (a syndrome often called Dr. Strangelove Syndrome), Ripper yammering about “precious bodily fluids” or the U.S. President’s interactions with the Russian President, the introduction credits, the music, the design of the Pentagon’s War Room, the screenplay, the cinematography (gorgeous and chilling black-and-white) and the performances. Every aspect of filmmaking is firing on all cylinders. It’s a movie you want to come back to again and again to catch all of the little details. There’s no way you can get everything Dr. Strangelove has to offer on a single viewing because unless you know ahead of time, there’s no way you’d recognize Sellers in his three roles. And that ending! This is a must-see. (On Blu-ray, October 20, 2017)

hi! i would love if you can write anything about reader reacting to Justin’s new hair curt, pleaseee😭

Even though you weren’t with him the first time around, you’d seen the pictures.

Everyone had.

During Justin’s rookie season, the Chargers were in a funk and he felt like it was time for a change so he let their head strength coach give him a haircut…in the weight room. Needless to say when Keenan dropped him off at his house after practice this evening and told you he wanted to cut it, you were less than impressed. He had the nerve to ask you what the big deal was.

“Well first off, you look like a cadet. In the worst way possible. I mean the buzzcut was just not a look. You were bald. And you looked like a teen, like one of those mean characters in Sky High that shoved kids into lockers.”

His glare almost makes you burst into laughter because he knows it’s true. “Come on y/n, it wasn’t even that bad. And it obviously grew back. I just need something new, something easy. I’m tired of asking you for help and with the offseason I really want to focus on football, not figure out how to put my Apple Watch on with one hand.”

The last few weeks you knew that he’d been feeling useless without a functioning dominant hand. Justin was probably the worst patient in the world and the stubbornness that went along with it didn’t allow him to sit back and enjoy being taken care of. He felt like he was a burden and it was annoying. So if he had to get rid of his hair to make life easier for everyone, he was going to do so. But the puppy dog look you were giving him almost made him reconsider.

Almost.

“I’m sorry but the appointment is already made. No turning back now.” He tells you as you run your fingers through the dirty blond locks, it would be the last time you’d get to do it for a while.

You got to his house the next day as soon as humanly possible, hoping he was already there. The sound of the tv in the living room made your heart race in anticipation of what was waiting for you in the living room.

He immediately stood up to greet you…with a hat on. The hug was warm and extra friendly. And it pissed you off.

“How was work?” He asks you, like there aren’t more important things to address. You are this close to taking the hat off his head yourself.

“Justin Patrick, please. We both know what I’m here for,” you whine as you wait for him to take off the Nike hat and he does so with a wide smile the entire time.

“Hm.”

The man furrows his brows, staring at you and trying to get a read on what that sound meant. “Hm as in…you hate it? You like it? You’re indifferent about it?”

“It actually looks a lot better than I thought it would,” you step away from him to walk around and inspect the damage. You hated the back but you weren’t going to tell him that right now. The front looked good though. He looked so much younger than he had 24 hours ago. “Still gonna call you Scott Pilgrim.”

He laughs, shaking his head at you. “Great, at least now I’m a hero instead of the villain in the story.”

“You are definitely a villain for getting rid of that beautiful hair. I miss it already.” Your boyfriend kisses the pout on your face and makes you forget your sorrows for a moment.

“Just be glad I went to a professional this time. You know the last time I got it cut by the strength coach.”

You look him dead in the eyes, running a hand down his arm. “Oh honey, I know. The entire world knows.”

The Gilded Age's Broadway Divas MASTERPOST

Welcome to my passion project. It has come to my attention that some viewers of HBO's The Gilded Age are unfamiliar with the extensive theatre credits, alcoates, and vocal talents many of the actors possess. As the resident Broadway Diva expert, it is my responsibility to fix that.

Pictured: 20 Tony Awards and 52 nominations. Audra McDonald...well, she kind of inflates the numbers a little. Edit: Justice for Tony winner Debra Monk. She's main cast.

Introducing my new series of blog posts where I will be highlighting two theatre veterans per day in the lead-up to our much-anticipated season two finale episode.

This series will heavily focus on a select few musical performances that are widely available for viewing, in addition to a brief career rundown. I will be limiting myself to no more than five videos per Diva, otherwise we'd be here for a lifetime. These performances will include popular songs and hidden gems alike, all curated to specifically show off the actress's considerable range in the theatre, especially juxtaposed against their roles in the show.

With respect to Michael Cerveris, Nathan Lane, and the other theatre gentlemen, I will be focusing this series on the women because I am a lesbian and this show is about the women, dammit. But fear not, they will most certainly be making appearances throughout because everyone has worked with everyone on stage.

The Divas:

Christine Baranski (Agnes van Rhijn) Donna Murphy (Caroline "Lina" Astor) Kelli O'Hara (Aurora Fane) Katie Finneran (Anne Morris) Debra Monk (Armstrong) Celia Keenan-Bolger (Mrs. Bruce) Laura Benanti (Susan Blane) Linda Emond (Clara Barton) Amber Gray (Bea) Denee Benton (Peggy Scott) Audra McDonald (Dorothy Scott) Jeanne Tripplehorn (Sylvia Chamberlain) Bonus: Duets, Trios, and Other Crossovers
