Description

Emma is joined this week by Dr. Vincent Casaregola of Saint Louis University to cover a film that is considered one of the best of all time: Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964)! An iconic Kubrick film, Dr. Strangelove takes a dark, comedic look at nuclear tensions and end-of-the-world antics.  Dr. Casaregola helps frame what the mindset was of the American people during the Cold War, the (very real) problems of nuclear mishaps, how Stanley Kubrick became one of the most innovative directors in the motion picture industry, what the best tips are for learning to appreciate classic movies.  Be sure to tune into this explosive episode!  Please Comment, Rate, and Share our episodes and tell us what you like and what you want to hear more of!— Be sure to check us out onOur website: https://the-old-soul-movie-podcast.simplecast.com/FacebookTwitter: @oldsoulpodInstagram: @oldsoulmoviepodcast— Films/Series Mentioned:On the Beach (1959)Fail Safe (1964)Paths of Glory (1957)The Americanization of Emily (1964)The Mouse That Roared (1959)Lolita (1962)Metropolis (1927)The Killing (1956)2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)A Clockwork Orange (1971)Barry Lyndon (1975)The Longest Day (1962)The Wizard of Oz (1939)Dawn's Early Light (Year Unknown)No Highway in the Sky (1951)The High and the Mighty (1954)Strategic Air Command (1955) Bombers B52 (1957)A Gathering of Eagles (1963) – Film featuring Rock Hudson and Rod TaylorHidden Figures (2016)Atomic Café (1982)*Canadian documentary title not foundThe Stand (2020 miniseries)Contagion (2011)Novels/Literary Works Mentioned:On the Beach by Nevil Shute (Published 1957)Red Alert by Peter George (Published 1958)Fail-Safe by Eugene Burdick and Harvey Wheeler (Published 1962)The Americanization of Emily by William Bradford Huie (Published 1959)Underworld by Don DeLillo (Published 1997)Missile Envy by Helen Caldicott (Published 1984)The Rhetoric of Antinuclear Fiction by Patrick Mannix (Published 1992)The Time Machine by H.
