Bodily Fluids
Does anyone get the "bodily fluids" monologue? Is there a deeper meaning or just pure madness?
shareGeneral Ripper is impotent.
shareAnother interpretation (I think better) is that General Ripper never had sex and never masterbated.
sharelol interesting, how did you come to this conclusion?
shareNY Review of Books reviewed a new book on Kubrick.
The reviewer gave quotes on Ripper that he was afraid of giving away his precious bodily fluids to women who wanted them. Added to this his weird commie fluoridation theory, that General Ripper launched the bombers to make it safe for American orgasms 🙂.
The review states the book and movie was originally meant to be serious, but Kubrick thought it worked better as a black comedy.
ah nice 1, cool infos!
shareAre we sure Ripper has a personal grudge about the bodily fluids? I thought he laid it out pretty clearly he believes the International Communist Conspiracy is to pollute our bodily fluids as a group (using the water supply and Ice Cream for instance), and thus destroying our culture and society through that subterfuge.
shareBack then, the real life John Birch Society actually did promote fears of a communist conspiracy to impurify our bodily fluid by fluridation of public drinking water. They are still around, funded by Koch money, and people still believe it.
