After reading all the posts in this thread, I've got to go out and rent this DVD.

IMO, an all time classic. Great cast. Great acting, esp. Peter Sellers playing 3 roles !. Great script. Great satire. Characters so, so stereotyped!

Weak president (Sellers), macho General (Scott), Ex-Nazi Security advisor (Sellers) made up for all the world to look like Henry Kissinger! Big hulking Russian ambassador.

Keenan Wynn asking Mandrake (Sellers) if he's some kind of prevert? And the scene with Mandrake at the coke machine asking him to shoot it to get enough change to dial the White House from Germany: " I can't do that. That's private property"

What was the name of that base? "Burpleson" Air Force Base?

General Buck Turgison: "Mr. President, we must not allow a Doomsday Gap!"

I also lliked Dr. Strangelove describing the characteristics of the women to place in the caves with the men for procreation purposes during the years of radiation cool-down.

"I'm fine Dimitri. What's that Dimitri? Your'e fine too? I'm glad your fine too Dimitri."
