Introducing Dr. Strangelove

Description

Stanley Kubrick's celebrated satire centres on an insane general who triggers a path to nuclear holocaust that a War Room full of politicians and military men frantically tries to stop. It stars Peter Sellers as an RAF officer, the President of the USA and the mysterious scientist Dr. Strangelove, one of cinema's most unique comic creations.

This special screening celebrates the publication of Robert P. Kolker and Nathan Abrams' Kubrick: An Odyssey (Faber and Faber), the first full-length biography of Kubrick in 20 years and the most comprehensive to date. Copies of the book will be available to buy on the day, courtesy of the London Review Bookshop.
