Description | Handwritten script with additional notes, in Kubrick's hand, of interest is a character list with the real life basis for the character on one side and the possible actor on the other for example, 'PRESIDENT-JFK [John Fitzgerald Kennedy, 1917 – 1963, President 20 Jan 1961- 22 Nov 1963] and a list of title options for example, 'The Atomic Blonde' and then others working up to the final title.
[As Kubrick was working through different title ideas, this script must predate the first known 'Dr. Strangelove or How...' titled script (SK/11/1/18 dated 31 Aug 1962) and post-date any scripts called Red Alert or DBoT (last known SK/11/1/15 dated 1 Aug 1962)]
