Rightly phrased, this question will be a bit too easy. So, I will just say: Identify.Answer: This is the famous deleted scene that was supposed to be the climax of Dr. Strangelove. Kubrick had originally planned the movie to end with a pie fight between the Russian ambassador and George C. Scott. You can actually see the food lined up in trays in many of the scenes in the war room. Of course, this didn't make the final cut and the movie ends instead with the iconic images of several nuclear explosions accompanied by Vera Lynn's "We will meet again". Matti, Divya Shankar, Siddarth Pai, anon and Jamie got it. Well done.

Strangelove deleted pie fight scene.
this alternate ending to DR Strangelove.
Dr. Strangelove. The ending to this one is so iconic it’s almost impossible to fathom it ending any other way. The ending that was used, of course, was Major T.J. “King” Kong riding a nuclear bomb like it’s a bucking bronco, followed by Dr. Strangelove miraculously walking just as the Doomsday Machine activates and detonates nuclear bombs across the world. But all of this could have been replaced with a massive fight at the Pentagon… a pie fight. Everyone in the war room, including the POTUS and the Russian Ambassador, cream each other in the face with pies like they’re slapstick vaudevillians. Stanley Kubrick ended up cutting the scene because he “decided it was farce and not consistent with the satiric tone of the rest of the film.” No kidding
