Bought the Criterion Collection BluRay of Fail Safe last year during the shut down. A good movie, but not as good as Dr. Strangelove (in my opinion). Stanley Kubrick just had a way of making exceptional films. Still have yet to read Red Alert. It's on the list next to Paths of Glory by Humphrey Cobb, which was also an exceptional Kubrick film steeped in absurdity.
"Women uh... women sense my power and they seek the life essence. I do not avoid women, Mandrake. But I do deny them my essence."
One of my favorite movies of all time. So absurd, but it seems like we're living in the same absurdity today, albeit totally real.
