It was a balloon buster for the RWNJs who had too much control on US nuclear, 1st strike policy. Gens. Ripper and Turgidson were alive and well and making policy in the Pentagon. Stanley Kubrick's greatest film, IMHO.

I'm thinking someone should do a "Downfall" type documentary about the reality of what George Bush did (or didn't do) between 1/2001 and 1//2009....a real autobiography of what went down in those 8 years - let the RW propagandists try to refute reality....people need to understand what Obama (and us) faced after this criminal cabal escaped office.

Stanley Kubrick had nothing to do with the movie that could be thought of as a sequel.

"The Bed-Sitting Room."

I've never seen it, but I've heard it has that droll British humor about the aftermath of a nuclear war.
