Dr. Stangelove is a Comedy for the Ages | A Review

Our Back in Time series concludes with one of the most important comedies ever made: Stanley Kubrick's Dr. Strangelove. This bold, brilliant satire sends up the Cold War with a bravery that's rare in movie history. It's quite the achievement that Kubrick and his collaborators find real humor in the threat of nuclear war.

Every film in this series (we've gone back ten years with each installment) has faced a greater difficulty: The older a film is, the more challenging it is to stand the test of time. How does Strangelove hold up? Is it still funny? Is its plot still relevant? You'll find the answers in this episode!

Plus, we pair this complex movie with a complex wine: A 2020 red Bordeaux. As with Strangelove, this wine is built to last, and we'll examine it's potential for both standalone drinking and cellaring. Enjoy!
