the end of this scene has a great comparison to the scene when they cross fingers and pray. thousands people would probably have thousands of intpretation lol.
The Ruskie talks big but frankly we think he's short of know how, I mean you just can't expect a bunch of ignorant PEONS to understand a machine like some of our boys, and that's not meant as an insult Mr. Ambassador (!!!!!!!!!!). Wow! In other words - f**k you, no offense! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is my favorite scene in the entire film. George C. Scott was my favorite aspect of this movie. I literally fell out of my chair and couldn't stop laughing after this outburst. God bless Stanley Kubrick and those who worked with him :)
"It is revealed on the DVD documentary that after having shot many takes of any given scene, Stanley Kubrick would frequently ask Scott to redo it in an "over the top" fashion. Kubrick would then proceed to use this version in the final cut, which Scott supposedly resented.[citation needed]"
dideroted - look for the 5 part "Inside the Making of Dr. Strangelove" here on YT, they discuss Scott's acting and also how Kubrick initially won him over, it's really worthwhile.
@dideroted He didn't exactly "Dislike IT" he was just mad that Kubrick told him to do it in an over the top fashion and said to him "They're just test parts" when in actuality they where what he really used in the final film. So in essence he felt betrayed by Kubrik.
@akf2000 He had to be prodigiously cogent and persuasive and Kubrick translated this through how intrinsically competetive he is at the game of chess, wasn't it? But regardless his performance will be predominantly great and perpetrate perpetually. I anticipate anyway.
@dideroted I think Kubrick wanted Scott to be more like an over the top general, with the same attitude that patton had. obviously this movie was made before patton. but we can all agree that Scott's performance in Patton (1970) was amazing!
@JimmySteller I read that he later looked back and decided he liked the performance. I assume at the time it was just a little too unrealistic for him.
Plus great artists are rarely ever satisfied with what they do.
From what I've seen, he enjoyed the film and his performance, he just didn't like how Kubrick lied to him and therefore said he would never work with him again.
@JimmySteller I can. Even in 1964, I thought it was overacted. I didn't know the wikipedia story till recently and I side with Scott. Billy Wilder once made Jack Lemmon redo a scene repearedly, each time telling Lemmon, "less". Finally, Lemmon said that if he did any less it wouldn't be acting. Wilder said that that was what he wanted.
Wilder said that Lubitsch's genius was his knowing that if you tell the audience 2 + 2, you don't have to say 4.

I wonder if the uploader of this video realizes that he just made a double entendre into a triple entendre by saying that Buck Turgidson is excited?

I didn't know that! Is this true?
I've just found this on wikipedia:
"It is revealed on the DVD documentary that after having shot many takes of any given scene, Stanley Kubrick would frequently ask Scott to redo it in an "over the top" fashion. Kubrick would then proceed to use this version in the final cut, which Scott supposedly resented.[citation needed]"
I'd love to read more about it.
