Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb
Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb sits at 43% across 28 matchups — below average, but close enough that a shift in the voting pool could change the picture. Peter Sellers playing three roles in a satire about nuclear annihilation shouldn't be the funniest film of the 1960s, but it is, and that impossible combination of dread and comedy gives voters something no other film on the ballot can offer.
