dark humor

Just like the black and white tone of this film, the whole film is also full of the director's black humor. The bullets are flying outside, but General Repi is still casually talking with Captain Mandek about his R plan; the Soviet Union is about to start The doomsday device of the United States, but American politicians are still meeting and discussing seemingly easily; in the end, the world is about to be destroyed, the United States is still thinking about how the living people should continue the Cold War, and the Soviet ambassador is filming American secrets, all of which seem to be Absurd, but all reveal the author's irony. This is a film that reflects the anti-Cold War theme between the United States and the Soviet Union in the later period of the Cold War. All the ironies are just right and silent. Peter Sellers plays a triangular role in the film. He is Dr. Strangelove. It was Mandek and the president of the United States. They were all able to change history and restore the situation that was out of control at that time, but none of them. It can be said that Peter Thaler said that these three roles played just right, and the enthusiasm for war will be carried out. It is full of incisive irony, and has a strong warning for some war madmen.

    Replay @影城,四星半; Peter Sellers’ mesmerizing cold face performance, coupled with Shanghai-language subtitles, is really drunk; Cold War background, nuclear explosion survival crisis, such a serious theme unexpectedly Being treated with such black humor and so absurd, the brain is as big as the universe; when the American president with a pair of black-rimmed glasses was seriously drowned in the politicians, Woody became alive later.

    This translated name is too embarrassing, and I fell asleep while I was tired, and my brain was blank. Oh god
