DR. STRANGELOVE, OR: HOW I LEARNED TO STOP WORRYING AND LOVE THE BOMB
November 12, 2013  | By David Bianculli

TCM, 9:45 p.m. ET

 

This is one of tonight’s movie choices by guest programmer Simon Helberg (The Big Bang Theory), and it’s an inspired one. Stanley Kubrick’s 1964 Cold War satire, made the same year and using the same basic plot as the deadly serious Fail-Safe, is bursting with superb comic performances – several of them coming from Peter Sellers, who plays several roles, and plays them all brilliantly.
