Hey everybody, thanks to everyone who made it out for Days of Heaven this past Thursday, we had a nice attendance (12 people!) and we even had a little conversation time afterwards for about 20 minutes, I was really happy with the way it turned out and it seemed like everyone enjoyed the film, at least to a certain extent. This update is for the month of September, a little advance notice so you know. We will be meeting Thursday, September 15th at 6:15pm and we will be watching:
Dr. Strangelove (or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb)
Directed By: Stanley Kubrick
Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, commonly known as Dr. Strangelove, is a 1964 black comedy film which satirized the nuclear scare. It was directed, produced, and co-written by Stanley Kubrick, starred Peter Sellers and George C. Scott, and featured Sterling Hayden, Keenan Wynn, Slim Pickens, and Tracy Reed. The film was loosely based on Peter George's Cold War thriller novel Red Alert, also known as Two Hours to Doom.
The story concerns an unhinged United States Air Force general who orders a first strike nuclear attack on the Soviet Union. It follows the President of the United States, his advisors, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and a Royal Air Force (RAF) officer as they try to recall the bombers to prevent a nuclear apocalypse. It separately follows the crew of one B-52 as they try to deliver their payload. (From Wikipedia)
