Dr. Strangelove Short Review

Lukas 2022-04-21 09:01:02

The black and white tone seems to exaggerate the cruelty of the war; the comedy soundtrack makes the film absurd. The clown-like meeting discussion in the war room, the clutter of chewing gum on the conference table, the expressions and body movements of Dr. Strangelove as he speaks, and even his standing, all seem especially absurd. Every call scene in the film seems to be talking to itself, which is incredible. The final scene of the film is the explosion of the nuclear bomb, which is desolate and even more contemplative. In my opinion, the anti-war ideology of the film can be reflected in the phone call between the President of the United States and Domitri. The president's reluctance to activate the doomsday device also implies that he does not want to see the outbreak of war. In fact, the use of comedy to express the war makes the film somewhat obscure and difficult to understand, and the dark humor in the war is also somewhat difficult to understand. Perhaps only those who have experienced the war era can understand it deeply.

    Black humor, stupid human beings. Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb

    Peter Sellers plays the role of the triangle, the three of them have very different personalities, which is really rare. Three spaces, the United States, the Soviet Union, and Germany, plus fancy absurd satire. Dr. Strange Ai, who only appeared in more than half of the show, the British Air Force who shot the Coke vending machine, the male pilot in the cabin, the sexy girl who answered the phone, and the dude in the cabin all made people think about it. The emptiness after sex is the source of the destruction of the world.

  • Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: Do I look all rancid and clotted? You look at me, Jack. Eh? Look, eh? And I drink a lot of water, you know. I'm what you might call a water man, Jack - that's what I am. And I can swear to you, my boy, swear to you, that there's nothing wrong with my bodily fluids. Not a thing, Jackie.

  • Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: If you don't put that gun away and stop this stupid nonsense, the court of Enquiry on this'll give you such a pranging, you'll be lucky if you end up wearing the uniform of a bloody toilet attendant.
