Dr. Strangelove (1964) Trailer #1 | Movieclips Classic TrailersStanley Kubrick’s dark, darkly funny, and absolutely savage examination of the Cold War and the deeply flawed humans who waged it is an all-time classic, starring Peter Sellers in three roles, a general worried about his “precious bodily fluids,” and a cowboy riding a nuclear bomb.

Night Shyamalan turned his intense thriller Split into a surprise sequel to Unbreakable, nerd minds broke all over the world. He then completed the unlikely trilogy with 2019's (highly disappointing) Glass, bringing the superpowered stars of both Unbreakable and Split together.
