    Human nature and not just ideology.

    I see a lot of comments focusing on the restoration of the Nazis or how the US and Soviet elites are unbearable. It is too superficial to focus on ideology, but on the whole of human nature. The irony of the movie is that even with a well-established institutional system, the uncontrollable madness...

I don't really remember how he analyzed Kubrick's work, but I only had an impression. , remember the name "Dr. Strangelove". It was recommended by a friend during...

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb quotes

  • President Merkin Muffley: [on phone with Dmitri] No. No, Dimitri, there must be some mistake. No, I'm certain of that. I'm perfectly certain of that, Dimitri. Just a second.

    [puts down phone]

    President Merkin Muffley: You know what he says? He says that one of the planes hasn't turned back. He says according to information forwarded by our air staff, it's headed for the missile complex at Lapuda.

    General "Buck" Turgidson: Why...

    [laughs incredulously]

    General "Buck" Turgidson: That's impossible, Mr. President. I mean, look at the big board! Thirty-four planes, thirty recalls acknowledged, and four splashes, and one of them was targeted for Lapuda!

    President Merkin Muffley: Dimitri? Look, we've got an acknowledgement from every plane except the four you've shot down.

    [beat]

    President Merkin Muffley: Oh. Oh.

    [puts down the phone]

    President Merkin Muffley: He says...

    [realizes Dimitri's still on the line, brings it back up]

    President Merkin Muffley: Hang on a second, Dimitri.

    [covers phone]

    President Merkin Muffley: He says their air staff now only claims three aircraft confirmed. The fourth may only be damaged.

    General "Buck" Turgidson: [narrows eyes, looks suspicious] Mr. President, I'm beginning to smell a big, fat Commie rat! I mean, supposin' Kissov is lying about that fourth plane, just lookin' for an excuse to clobber us. I mean, if the spaghetti hits the fan, now, we're in trouble.

  • President Merkin Muffley: [on the phone with the Soviet Premier] I guess you're just going to have to get that plane, Dimitri. Dimitri, I'm sorry that jamming your radar and flying so low; but, they're trained to do it. You know, it's - it's initiative!
