Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb

Kubrick's 1964 satire of nuclear command and control, quoted visually throughout the CivBench essay.

Unverifieddraft

Used for imagery rather than argument, but the choice is not arbitrary: a film about an escalation nobody quite intended, running through a system that behaved exactly as designed, sitting over an account of an agent that spent fifty turns building nuclear weapons to answer the wrong threat.

Recorded as a Work with CSL type motion_picture, which the collection could not express until the CSL enum was adopted in full.
