They have no longevity.
They don't endure.
:40:03
They're not films
that you would watch. . .
:40:06
. . .for any reason
except out of sociological interest.
:40:09
But people will watch Dr. Strangelove
repeatedly because it's so funny.

:40:46
He spent many of the scenes
just being an audience. . .
:40:49
. . .not a director.

. . .combined with a spirit. . .
:41:25
. . .of bold curiosity
for the adventure ahead.
:41:29

:41:38
. . .the detail in Dr. Strangelove,
you know, you would think. . .
:41:42
. . .that he'd lived through
that experience.
:41:45

:41:56
...four days concentrated emergency
rations...

. . .one drug issue
containing antibiotics. . .
