SUMMARY:Cinema at the Nexus: Dr. Strangelove | Introduction by Elena Kempf (History)
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Strangelove (1964)\, Directed by Stanley Kubrick (94 
 minutes)\n\nTopic: Authoritarianism\, Nuclear Arms Race\n\nIntroduction by 
 Elena Kempf (History)\n\n\nDr. Strangelove is widely considered one of the 
 best political satire films and one of the greatest and most influential 
 films ever made\, winning several awards including decades after it first 
 came out. Dr. Strangelove parodies Cold War fears of a nuclear war between 
 the United States and the Soviet Union. The story concerns an insane 
 brigadier general of the United States Air Force who orders a pre-emptive 
 nuclear attack on the Soviet Union. It follows the President of the United 
 States (Peter Sellers)\, his scientific advisor Dr. Strangelove (Peter 
 Sellers)\, a Royal Air Force exchange officer (Peter Sellers)\, and the 
 Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff as they attempt to stop the crew of a 
 B-52 from bombing the Soviet Union and starting a nuclear war. (Adapted 
 from Wikipedia)\n\nCinema at the Nexus\n\nIs an institute-wide film series 
 showcasing films/documentaries that grapple with pressing issues of our day 
 aiming to make some sense of what we are experiencing today.\n\nSupported 
 by the SHASS Dean’s grant\, hosted by the MIT Libraries\n\nPizza and 
 light refreshments will be served. Registration is not required but 
 encouraged.\n\nContact for suggestions and questions: doylec@mit.edu\,
