Possibly the best acting job for a single actor ever as Peter Sellers played 3 completely different roles in this movie; US President (American), Dr. Strangelove (German) & an English officer. "Mein Fuhrer, I can walk!"
Sellers was also going to play the Slim Pickens "pilot" but was unhappy about the southern drawl so supposedly talked Kubrick out of doing that role (I always thought NOBODY could talk Kubrick out of anything, especially something that wasn't Kubrick's own idea).
@@rt3593 Peter Sellers played three roles in Stanley Kubrick’s Dr. Strangelove - British officer Lionel Mandrake, U.S. President Merkin Muffley, and ex-Nazi nuke expert Dr. Strangelove - but he was supposed to play a fourth role: Major T.J. Kong. Sellers was reluctant to portray a character with such a thick Texan accent, but writer Terry Southern, a Texan himself, coached Sellers through it. As soon as Sellers became comfortable with taking on the role, he ended up spraining his ankle, making it impossible for him to fit into the cramped cockpit sets that the role would require.
Pure Kubrick - there is no substitute! This song, sung by Vera Lynn in the depths of WWII (1943) is itself an iconic work of art. Using it in the final scene as the nuclear war plays out is absolute genius. I watch "Strangelove" about once a year or so. Every time I find myself laughing til I cry, astounded at the most incredible screenplay dialog ever written! I can damn near recite the whole movie line-for-line; and I know I am not the only one!!
Ended up here after Elon's "Roman salute" as some are calling it... Great montage of one of the greatest dark comedies, regardless of medium, of the past century!
My dad always told us, "war is not the answer." He flew B-26's in WW2, B-57's in the Korean war, and B-52's in Vietnam... if anyone knew what war was all about, it was by him.
1:30 it’s a bit dark but when the chorus kicks in, I like to think it’s the voices of all the boys who couldn’t make it back home from whatever front they were on
I find it incredibly depressing, but I seem to be in the minority among my peers… So, if it isn’t too much trouble, would you mind explaining what it is that makes you love this movie so much, I would truly appreciate the insight.
@@griffins750 First of all the acting of Peter Sellers and George C. Scott. Peter Sellers as the German scientist who cannot control his arm who wants to do the Heil Hitler. I was born in 1945 in occupied Denmark, we lived with the threat of nuclear war, remember the Cuban Missilie Crisis. This movie is funny and tragic at the same time, Stanley Kubrik was a genious. If you want to watch a true depressing movie about nuclear war then watch "On the Beach", with Gregory Peck, Anthony Perkins and Ava Gardner, that movie is truly depressing withouth the comic relief of Dr. Strangelove.
Anything that can be more incredible than the movie would be This song. The ending is tragic yet u dont get that vibe cause of the Satirical nature of the movie. Reason why such a masterpiece couldn't be made again.
Scott was very dissatisfied with his performance which he considered to be too over the top. He only did it because Kubrick promised not to use the shots he ended up using.
I'm right there with you! I mean c'mon: Arthur C. Clarke AND Stanley Kubrick?!? GAME OVER! And then we have: "Gentlemen! You can't fight in here, this is the WAR ROOM!" - I'm howling, paralyzed by Black Humor! "Strangelove" has arguably some of the most incredible dialog ever written for the screen, while "2001: A Space Odyssey" conveys its most profound messages *with no words at all*. That's Kubrick for ya.
As a World War 2 era song ▪︎ to realize when you hear it ▪︎ is to visualize those young men , climbing aboard powerful sleek looking aircraft , not knowing if they'll be ▪︎ ▪︎ ▪︎ coming back. The Sailors the Infantrymen , that haunting melody., those words ▪︎ were for them all ▪︎ the generation that saved "US" that saved our future / and if one thinks too long and hard about it all / becoming 'emotional' is to have a heart ▪︎ a heart filled with thanks ... for those that faced the horrors of the unknown -> daily ( but what's in a song ? ▪︎ maybe everything )
i totally agree with you dear maria. today this tragic irony and sarcasm of madness and hysteria between usa and russia is way more relevant than it was back then. in fact even during the cuba missile crisis there was way more room for communication between the two superpowers than there is today. what a prophetic masterpiece!!
What's the real tragedy in this film is that George C. Scott didn't get an academy award nomination. I mean come on... his portrayal as Buck... it's gold. Truly gold. The faces? The line there's no fighting in the war room? A dramatic actor playing the funny man against Peter Sellers? Christ... he totally should have been not only nominated... he should have won in 1964. The nominees were Sidney Poitier for Lillies of the Field, Rex Harrison for Cleopatra, Paul Newman for Hud, Richard Harris for This Sporting Life, and Albert Finney for Tom Jones. Sidney Poitier won for Lillies of the Field... which is bullshit. If anyone in that lineup should have won... it should have been Rex Harrison for Cleopatra... But the idea that George C. Scott isn't on that list for Dr. Strangelove is beyond me... lol :D He totally should be. And if he was nominated... he should have won. To be believable in that film... as a funny man... Scott would have truly been the best actor in that field. A dramatic actor... being a funny man... in a crazy film about the atomic bomb... and be not just believable... but actually likeable and endearing? Yeah... that's worth an Oscar in my book. He makes the film. Next to Pickens... he's literally the most iconic character in the film. More people remember "there's no fighting in the war room" line than the riding the bomb scene. :D
The images of the "War Room" also became so concentrated in Ronald Reagan's mind, that he was determined to visit this fantasy room (designed by Ken Adam) after his election as president.

Wow!
and Sellers began but had to drop the role of the bomber captain that Slim Pickens did so wonderfully.
Sellers was also going to play the Slim Pickens "pilot" but was unhappy about the southern drawl so supposedly talked Kubrick out of doing that role (I always thought NOBODY could talk Kubrick out of anything, especially something that wasn't Kubrick's own idea).

It's unreal. Dr. Strangelove was made 58 years ago and its lesson is still valid today, even more today than 58 years ago.
Yeah. Do not drink water
War. War never changes.
@@CaptAoife haha i just rewatched Dr.Strangelove since its so Fallout fitting i love this movie
I’m here one year later. We’re certainly closer to no tomorrow, than we were when you posted this a year ago.
No more than a few weeks or days left for the people in charge to learn a lesson from it.

Always loved this, one of the most incredible films ever made and so symbollic to have "we'll meet again" by the timeless Vera Lynn at the end
This is easily my favorite movie of all time. I think of it every other day
My dad always told us, "war is not the answer." He flew B-26's in WW2, B-57's in the Korean war, and B-52's in Vietnam... if anyone knew what war was all about, it was by him.
My dad said, "Sex is not the answer. Sex is the question. The answer is yes!"
I'm the youngest of six.
@@0ned Bully for you!
I think this is my favorite film. In my opinion, still vastly under appreciated.
Gentlemen,you can't fight in here..this is the war room!
Jajajajajajajajajajajajajaja
One of the best films of all time, top 10 for sure
This guy know what he's talking about because he's got god from Monty python and the holy grail as his profile pic
There’s something about hearing an old live song over a movie or cartoon about war that’s so unnerving but yet calming. I love it
1:30 it’s a bit dark but when the chorus kicks in, I like to think it’s the voices of all the boys who couldn’t make it back home from whatever front they were on
I thought the same. Dead people singing from the other side
Funny thing is all the people in the audio are dead af by now, just like the people in the laugh tracks for television shows
Perfect song to end a perfect film.
Awesome song for an awesome movie 👍
Damn great movie!!!!! Just watched again the other night.
What a movie, I’m in love with it
I find it incredibly depressing, but I seem to be in the minority among my peers… So, if it isn’t too much trouble, would you mind explaining what it is that makes you love this movie so much, I would truly appreciate the insight.

@@griffins750 I think it's both: great and very depressing
Fantastic movie
We'll done. Thank you.
Highly recommended movie.
thank you for editing this video as you did. god, i didnt even realize it as i was watching the movie but these shots are so goddamn pretty.
If art has a purpose, surely this is it?
Anything that can be more incredible than the movie would be This song. The ending is tragic yet u dont get that vibe cause of the Satirical nature of the movie.
Reason why such a masterpiece couldn't be made again.
There will never be another Kubrick.
what a sarcastic and cynical masterpiece
Extraordinary Peter Sellers!
“MEIN FÜHRER! I CAN WALK!”
Jajajajajaa es genial
*explodes*
George C Scott was amazing!
Scott was very dissatisfied with his performance which he considered to be too over the top. He only did it because Kubrick promised not to use the shots he ended up using.

We gotta protect our precious bodily fluids.
‘Has he got a chance? Why hell yyeessss……..’
MEIN FUHRER! I CAN WALK!
This is my second favourite movie of all time... behind "2001: A Space Odyssey", the other Kubrick classic. We will never see his like again.

this is the finest edit of an old movie i have ever seen
A classic!

Your gonna have to answer to the Coca Cola Bottling Company. Who knew that Darth Vader would be on that bombing run.
I prefer the original movie scene that was played to this song. Always makes me feel nice 😊

This ending becomes relevant every day.
"I'm not saying we wouldn't get our hair a little mussed ..."
Perfectly, perfectly.I love Stanley Kubrick

Well, i guess, we'll meet again rather sooner than later 🫡
Little did I know that a little over a year after watching this movie that my job would be to arm nuclear weapons if they were to be used.
With Russian hyper-sonic nuclear multi tipped missiles we might not even know we were killed before any warning, so I hope your fast Clay!
Possibly the worst day in Mandrakes life .
the only actor alive from this legendary black comedy, is the veteran actor james earl jones
Who’s here because of today’s news?

Its is ante portas!!!

Does anybody here remember Vera Lynn?
My Dad does. He says she used to play on the radio 👍
Remember how she said that we would meet again, some sunny day?
a present for DT
2025 we will get several new suns :) happy times happy times
It was 1964. And we still haven't learned a thing.
Good lord.
Anyone who says the 1950's were the best America ever... show them this video.
What a nightmare.
Strangelove was 1964 and this was satire.

This is the why.... had to be me.

Me too
I wonder if putin really liked this movie or not
Do *_not_* bring it to his attention!
