017 - DR. STRANGELOVE, or: HOW I LEARNED to STOP WORRYING and LOVE the BOMB (1964)

Welcome to The Criterion Connection, a podcast about The Criterion Collection. On this episode, Ian (they/them) & McKenzie (she/her) discuss Stanley Kubrick & his first canonical masterpiece, SPINE #821, DR. STRANGELOVE, or: HOW I LEARNED to STOP WORRYING and LOVE the BOMB (1964)! We discuss our Kubrick histories, what works and what doesn't, the performances of Sellers as well as Scott & Hayden, and get into a little bit of why the film appears to remain so relevant. Other topics include: Ian took their family to see ASTEROID CITY (2023), McKenzie took in TAYLOR MAC'S 24-DECADE HISTORY of POPULAR MUSIC (2023), and we chat B&N 50% OFF SALE briefly! ---- Chapters
