Hi, John,

I just re-read this paragraph;  it actually appeared in Adelheid's post.
Now I remember that I wanted to respond to it yesterday.

And, my response is:  that "Dr. Strangelove or How I Learned to Love the
Bomb" was satire!  Of course, it was an anti-bomb movie.  You can't really
compare it to anything Reifenstahl did.  AFAIK, she didn't do satire, or any
other form of comedy.  <vbg>

cheers,
frank
