Sure. More to the point, its a satire of a topic that most people
would
have previously bet was unsatirisable, nuclear war. I would call The
Mouse That Roared more of a farce, in the strict sense.

Although ... Billy Wilder had, apparently, in the late 50s
toyed around with the idea of reuniting the Marx Brothers to make a
``Duck Soup for the Nuclear Age'' movie. When we get the cross-time
trade routes set up, I want to get a look at *that* movie.
