Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I haven't seen it yet, but DH did.

I'm pretty sure ND went to see it, but he never comes in this thread.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Can't argue with Sellers in '64.
Yeah, but Dr. Strangelove gets counted three times.
And so does It Happened One Night -- Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Actress Oscars.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
And so does It Happened One Night -- Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Actress Oscars.
I don't think that's how he was counting (Strangelove was nommed for 4 Oscars) -- but rather that Sellers was three characters.

Always Anti-fascist!
I love that fricking movie. My favorite "classic" film. And I've seen a lot more now, so that actually means something for me to say.

Oh, my bad. I haven't seen Strangelove in a while.
That's a situation that's well worth rectifying. It holds up astonishingly well for a piece of satire (which I find tends to date quickly, unless it's really well done). Just goes to show you that chuckledheaded behavior from politicians, bureaucrats and military people never goes out of style.
I've been meaning to watch it again since the fustercluck post-Katrina. I have a feeling it will feel completely relevant.
