"You Can't Fight in Here. This is the War Room!" (video)

"Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb" is the brilliant vision from Stanley Kubrick of the supreme absurdity of leaving war to the generals.



General 'Buck' Turgidson (George C. Scott) starts a fight with Russian Ambassador Alexi de Sadesky (Peter Bull) and President Merkin Muffley (Peter Sellers) intervenes to try to stop it.

Note:  you may wish to review the meaning of 'merkin.'


The movie also features other military commanders such as Brig. Gen. Jack D. Ripper, Col. 'Bat' Guano, and Maj. 'King' Kong.
