Every Friday and Saturday night at 11:55pm, it's another Midnight Movie Classic at the Landmark River Oaks Theatre.

Friday-Saturday,  November 18-19:   Dr. Strangelove Or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb

Jack D. Ripper (Sterling Hayden), a psychotic general obsessed with Commies and bodily fluids, triggers a possible nuclear confrontation in Stanley Kubrick's landmark satire, which turns the entire concept of global annihilation into mad black comedy. Peter Sellers stars in three roles: the mild-mannered U.S. president; a British officer held prisoner by the insane general; and the title character, an ex-Nazi scientist. George C. Scott, Slim Pickens, Keenan Wynn, Peter Bull and James Earl Jones (in his film debut) co-star. Screenplay by Kubrick, Terry Southern and Peter George.
