Dr. Strangelove Comes to Blu-ray on June 16th
Stanley Kubrick's black comedy classic about an "accidental" nuclear attack received four Oscar nominations (including Best Picture, 1964). Convinced the Commies want to pollute America's "precious bodily fluids," a crazed general (Sterling Hayden) orders a nuclear air strike on the U.S.S.R. As his aide, Captain Mandrake (Peter Sellers), scrambles to unlock a recall code to prevent the bombing, the U.S. President (Sellers again) calls a drunken Soviet Premier on the hotline claiming the proposed attack is all a silly mistake, while the President's advisor (an ex-Nazi scientist) Dr. Strangelove (Sellers once more) verifies the existence of a dreaded Doomsday Machine - a retaliatory device designed by the Soviets to end the human race once and for all!

Sellers did play the president, and the "crazed general" was General Jack D. Ripper, and Gen. Turgidson (played by George C. Scott) was the general in the war room, along with the president, and others!
You may want to watch the movie again, or at least edit/delete your post so you don't look bad!

I truly hope a Blu-ray boxed set comes out, something called The Kubrick Collection or something like that, and includes 2001, A Clockwork Orange, The Shining, Dr. Strangelove, Spartacus, Full Metal Jacket, Lolita, Eyes Wide Shut, and that amazing doc*mentary about him: A Life In Pictures. He is no doubt one of the best directors to grace Hollywood. That collection would be a true collector's item.
