It find it interesting that some conservatives (or pro-military) people have a distaste for the movie.
It is satire! Pure satire. Of course, they poke fun at the process of nuclear deterrence.
I Love the movie unabashedly. I love the opening scene where they show, as an intro, a B-52 and a KC-135 doing their thing (a snickeringly disguised sexual overtone to ‘sneak’ past the censors) to a nice, orchestral version of “Try a Little Tenderness”! The contrast alone is humorous!
I love the ending, with nuclear bomb explosions prominent, to the music of Vera Lynn’s “We’ll Meet Again”!
Different time...different place!
I loved the way “Strangelove” poked at the moral officiousness of the main movie it was lampooning, “Fail-Safe”.
