What Stanley Kubrick nearly called Dr Strangelove or: Even great directors like a Uranus gag
We can’t help but feel that if Stanley Kubrick’s 1964 black comedy Dr Strangelove or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying and Love The Bomb had been called “Dr Strangelove’s Secret Uses of Uranus” it might not be quite so well appreciated today.

Fascinating insight into the mind of the great man.
It's a shame Kubrick didn't go with Dr. Stranglelove's Secret Use of Uranus!
