Manchurian Candidate (1962). Great classic that was way ahead of its times. Angela Lansbury is incredible in her role, and Frank Sinatra is pretty wonderful as well. The rest of the cast effectively do their kobs. The story was pretty darned good, and while threatening to be almost goofy at times, it instead lends certain scenes an appropriately dreamy feel. Overall a great classsic. Ashe.
