Dr. Strangelove



Dr. Strange Love takes place back in the times of the Cold war between the Unites States and the Soviet Union.  While on an American bomb alert base, the U.S. Air force General Jack Ripper purposely gives his crew orders to send out a nuclear attack on the soviets. The soldiers all gear up heading out on their air craft and are ready to attack under the impression that they are going into war. Seeing the disaster that is about to happen due to false reports, the President and chiefs gather together to stop this travesty. The lecture for this week was mainly about Directing and the type of directors that are in the industry. Stanley Kubrick was the Director of Dr. Strange love, he is known for being very meticulous wanting everything from the smallest prop and scene to be perfect. I must say this film was very thought out and plan, I don’t think there was a moment of confusion due to a misdirected scene or something. You could tell the plot, theme, and storyline very easily understand the message coming across from the film. Overall view, Dr. Strangelove was very entertaining, having funny moments along with everything taking place.
