I saw Dr. Strangelove or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb on request recently and while I understood it to be a comedy, it kind of confused me in a few ways.
Why is Dr. Strangelove the title character when he appears so little?
Why does it end with "I can walk!"? Even for irony's sake, it a pretty middle-of-nowhere place to end the movie. Does Dr. Strangelove's ability to walk factor into something?
Why is he fidgeting all the time? Someone told me that he's an ex-Nazi or something so he's resisting impulses to "heil Hitler", which I get, but I don't even remember that ever being brought up. Did I miss a line or am I supposed to infer from his weird voice and body language that he used to be a nazi?
