Stanley Kubrick's Dr. Strangelove is to timeless cinema what Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds is to timeless spelling.
I don't know what that means either but it sounds like something that simply must be said.
Oh, and if a remake is ever made, may I suggest that in the scene where Dr. Strangelove rises from the chair bellowing tremulously, "Mein fuhrer I can walk!", it be changed to "Mein fuhrer, I have bombed Iran!"
I'll leave it to your imagination as to whom I see Dr. Strangelove most cannily reflecting today.
