First Friday: Dr. Strangelove Movie Screening

Join Poster House for a special screening of Stanley Kubrick’s darkly satirical masterpiece Dr. Strangelove (1964), presented in conjunction with the exhibition Fallout: Atoms for War & Peace. This razor-sharp Cold War comedy follows the surreal unraveling of nuclear diplomacy as a U.S. Air Force general sets off an unthinkable chain of events.

With a classic performance from Peter Sellers and biting political commentary, Dr. Strangelove captures the absurdity and anxiety of the Atomic Age—echoing some of the themes explored in Fallout. 

Seating is first come, first served.

Please note: This film is rated PG and is recommended for ages 13 and up.
