Dr. Strangelove

Using Vera-Ellen here is especially effective.
Kubrick is fucking incredible.

@shivaboyd Peter Sellers claimed to have suggested the use of Vera-Ellen to Kubrick, actually.

Kubrick was a master of musical juxtaposition.

I recommend A Clockwork Orange.

Brilliant.

Love the fact that even after the assured destruction of the Earth, the Americans are still preoccupied with Communism, George C. Scott ftw.
