The Manchurian Candidate

3

Easily the best and most complex of all Cold War thrillers, this chilling film sees Frank Sinatra's Korean War vet uncover a conspiracy in the US government.

DVD Extras:

Hard to fault this disc: it balances a decent gab track from helmer Jonathan Demme with two Making Of featurettes. Some essential deleted scenes solve the mystery of why Washington's Delta Forces specialist buys romance novels and give Streep more space to shine. Best of all is Political Pundits, where ordinary people talk politics and prove more clued up about democracy and corporate America than the movie itself.
