DR. STRANGELOVE: OR HOW I LEARNED TO STOP WORRYING AND LOVE THE BOMB


Stanley Kubrick (screenplay) &Terry Southern (screenplay) & Peter George (screenplay) Peter George(book "Red Alert")



General Jack D. Ripper: Mandrake, do you realize that in addition to fluoridating water, why, there are studies underway to fluoridate salt, flour, fruit juices, soup, sugar, milk... ice cream. Ice cream, Mandrake, children's ice cream.
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: [very nervous] Lord, Jack.
General Jack D. Ripper: You know when fluoridation first began?
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: I... no, no. I don't, Jack.
General Jack D. Ripper: Nineteen hundred and forty-six. 1946, Mandrake. How does that coincide with your post-war Commie conspiracy, huh? It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual. Certainly without any choice. That's the way your hard-core Commie works.
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: Uh, Jack, Jack, listen... tell me, tell me, Jack. When did you first... become... well, develop this theory?
General Jack D. Ripper: [somewhat embarassed] Well, I, uh... I... I... first became aware of it, Mandrake, during the physical act of love.
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: Hmm.
General Jack D. Ripper: Yes, a uh, a profound sense of fatigue... a feeling of emptiness followed. Luckily I... I was able to interpret these feelings correctly. Loss of essence.
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: Hmm.
General Jack D. Ripper: I can assure you it has not recurred, Mandrake. Women uh... women sense my power and they seek the life essence. I, uh... I do not avoid women, Mandrake.
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: No.
General Jack D. Ripper: But I... I do deny them my essence.

I suggest a mash-up of both: seduction scenes in which one, or both, of the characters is psychotic.

The first film that snaps to mind is the Linda Fiorentino character seducing Griffin Dunne's character in AFTER HOURS... Perhaps she's not psychotic, just way out on the edge, but...

Seduction - Double Indemnity:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r69dQZHjkmY

PHYLLIS: Mr. Neff, why don't you drop by tomorrow evening about eight-thirty. He'll be in then.

NEFF: Who?

PHYLLIS: My husband. You were anxious to talk to him weren't you?

NEFF: Sure, only I'm getting over it a little. If you know what I mean.

PHYLLIS: There's a speed limit in this state, Mr. Neff. Forty-five miles an hour.

NEFF: How fast was I going, officer?

PHYLLIS: I'd say about ninety.

NEFF: Suppose you get down off your motorcycle and give me a ticket.

PHYLLIS: Suppose I let you off with a warning this time.

NEFF: Suppose it doesn't take.

PHYLLIS: Suppose I have to whack you over the knuckles.

NEFF: Suppose I bust out crying and put my head on your shoulder.

PHYLLIS: Suppose you try putting it on my husband's shoulder.

NEFF: That tears it.

The most classic seduction scene in cinema history -

The Graduate:

MRS. ROBINSON: My husband will be back quite late.

They look at each other. Ben is half standing.

MRS. ROBINSON: He should be gone for several hours.

She takes a step toward him. He puts his hand up and retreats around the other side of the chair.

BEN: Oh my God.

MRS. ROBINSON: Pardon?

BEN: Oh no, Mrs. Robinson, oh no.

MRS. ROBINSON: What's wrong?

BEN: Mrs. Robinson, you didn't - I mean you didn't expect -

MRS. ROBINSON: What?

BEN: I mean - you didn't really think that I would do something like that.

MRS. ROBINSON: Like what?

BEN: What do you think?

MRS. ROBINSON: Well I don't know.

BEN: For God's sake, Mrs. Robinson, here we are, you've got me into your house. You give me a drink. You put on music, now you start opening up your personal life to me and tell me your husband won't be home for hours.

MRS. ROBINSON: So?

BEN: Mrs. Robinson - you are trying to seduce me.

There is a pause. She looks at him.

BEN: (weaker) Aren't you?

And three more seduction scenes.

Okay, one more - Match Point:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nlhfpU5IaYE

NOLA: So – who's my next victim? You?

CHRIS: I haven't played table tennis in quite a while.

NOLA: Would you like to play for a thousand pounds per game?

CHRIS: What did I walk into?

They play. Chris smashes the ping pong ball across the table. He smiles.

NOLA: What did *I* walk into?

CHRIS: It's like this. May I?

NOLA: Please.

CHRIS: You have to lean in...and hit through the ball.

NOLA: I was doing just fine until you showed up.

CHRIS: Ah, the story of my life. So tell me...what's a beautiful young American ping pong player doing mingling amongst the British upper class?

NOLA: Did anyone ever tell you you play a very aggressive game?

CHRIS: Did anyone ever tell you you've very sensual lips?

NOLA: Extremely aggressive.
