Review of The Manchurian Candidate (1962) by Justin C — 17 May 2010
A fantastic thriller that feels years ahead of its time. some of the plot logic seems a bit questionable to me, but the film really is no less enjoyable for it. a superb cast, particularly the slyly villainous Angela Lansbury.
nothing quite like a communist takeover conspiracy (with a generous jab at McCarthyism) to get the juices flowing!
