Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb
directed by Stanley Kubrick
Dr. Strangelove parodies Cold War fears of a nuclear war between the United States and the Soviet Union and stars Peter Sellers (portraying three different characters), George C. Scott, Sterling Hayden, Keenan Wynn, Slim Pickens, and Tracy Reed. The story concerns a paranoid 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 (Sellers), his scientific advisor Dr. Strangelove (Sellers), a Royal Air Force exchange officer (Sellers), and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (Scott) as they attempt to stop the crew of a B-52 from bombing the Soviet Union and starting a nuclear war.

Accustomed to the fact that most of the films about the war drew apocalyptic plots from the front, this picture became a breath of fresh air for me, allowing me to take a different look at the genre of war cinema as a whole. Kubrick skillfully works with satire on all possible archetypes of personalities of those years, whether they are ordinary American soldiers, patriotically minded to defend their homeland, or politicians, who care only about sex, personal survival and the ability to tear the inhabitants of the neighboring continent to shreds.
Agonality is inherent in human civilization. Analyzing the film through the prism of this judgment, it should be noted how inexorably everything is moving towards war. War for the sake of war, for war for war. The implementation of senseless actions, the creation of senseless weapons of mass destruction capable of turning the planet into a scorched wasteland, against this background is the inaction of the authorities, where the US president seems to be the only voice of reason, who, however, is not enough to influence the current circumstances.
Noticing the work with images: it seems very successful to have a cowboy riding an atomic bomb, who whips her hat. It's definitely not a horse you can tame, buddy.
rate: 10 nuc bombs/10.
"I can stand!" — the ghost of a dehumanizing ideology.
However, people remember peace when civilization is on the verge of war. It is a pity that many such paintings remain a statement in the vacuum.
Tip #108: SHOOT A WALKAWAY ENDING. Charlie Chaplin invented—or at least popularized—walking away from the camera as a way of signifying that a movie story has ended. Typically, the action involved only one character, the protagonist. But as we see in the shot from “Escamol,” this narrative technique can involve a group of performers. While the method has often been used in comedies and dramas, it works equally well in other genres such as documentaries, music videos, and travelogues. “Escamol,” directed by Silvia Santoyo (@silviamx), won top prize in the animal category in the FiLMiC Pro competition. It was chosen as a Mobile Movie of the Week. You can see “Escalmol” and read an interview with the director at MobileMovieMaking (link in profile).

Isle of Dogs is an upcoming animation set on a Japanese island where all dogs have been banished due to some doggy plague. A group of pooches protect a boy, who sneaks onto the island looking for his faithful fourlegged friend, from the government who chase after him. 🌛🔮🌜 Plot of the film – Ace of Cups - The boy looking for his one dog while overflowing with choice of other faithful and good hounds. He begins to adore them all, but never stops looking for his dog. The boy grows happier with the others by his side. Star of the show –Five of Wands - The alpha dog will be the main favourite of the audience, for his ability to calm other dogs and win his fights with grace. There will be a lot of discussion over favourite characters, as each dog will win the heart of a different group. Conflict – The Magician - the doggy plague was man made! It turns out there is a great conspiracy surrounding the plot of the film. Resolution – Queen of Coins - A strong feminine energy will save the day and our group by offering refuge and comfort, but not without some sacrifice. Shadow card: Review – Six of Wands - Although the film will be good, it will go missed by too many people and not take off the way it should. Even if it does reach world acclaim, it will pass and be a favourite in lists of great films rather than winning a spot on the DVD shelf. #tarot #tarotreadersofinstagram #tarotreader#witch #tarotreading #tumblrtarot #tarotwitch#filmpreview #filmreview #moviepreview#moviereview #movie #film#movietarot #dogs #dogsofinsta #dogsofinstagram #animation #dogfilms #dog #puppy #dogsinfilms #instagramdogs #instadogs #mansbestfriend
