Doctor Strange Love Response
I find for doctor strange love to be extremely similar to Fail Safe. The similarities are many like the plane dropping a nuclear bomb on Russia and the U.S. president not being able to call back the strike. The obvious difference is that Doctor Strange Love has more of a playful, satirical tone, while Fail Safe is serious the whole way though. In the end of the movie Doctor Strange Love when all of the generals are in the war room some thing greatly stood out. The nazi scientist that was sitting in a wheel chair gave a very Herman Kahn perspective on the annihilation of the human kind. The nazi scientist explains that we would be able to survive nuclear war and even prosper afterwards. The scientist also gives a perspective that would be hard to grasp, he explains that only fit, and smart people should enter in the mineshafts. Much like Kahn’s perspective of feeding radioactive food to the old. The notion or idea to give hazards to the old so the young could prevail, in the perspective of the scientist to let weak, dumb, people die so the strong smart, different aspects of society could go on. I also was able to make another link between the nazi scientist and Kahn. In the Fat Man Kahn is compared to Adolf Einchmann a nazi SS leader that was many times called the architect of the Holocaust.
I think that the reason why the scientist played the role of a nazi in the movie is because of his idea of human life and preservation. His idea is somewhat genocidal, gene cleansing to rid of the dumb and weak and only to let the strong and smart prevail. In conclusion I find many obvious similarities between Strange Love and Fail Safe and I find some type of similarity between the nazi scientist and Kahn.

Something that i would like to more more about, would be if a nuclear war survivable? Was there any plans for survival? In case of nuclear war how would the president of the U.S. be protected?
