About this product

Product Information

John Frankenheimer's brilliant adaptation of Richard Condon's Cold-War satire, THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE is the director's best film, both a coruscating thriller and a razor-sharp satire of political hysteria that captures the turbulent mood of the 1960s. Packed with sly details, such as the liberal senator "bleeding" milk when he's shot, the film demands repeated viewings.Laurence Harvey stars as Sergeant Raymond Shaw, whose U.S. army unit is captured while fighting in Korea, taken to Manchuria, and brainwashed by Chinese communists. The men return to the U.S. with no conscious memory of their experience, and Shaw is awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for bravery. But when Captain Bennett Marco (Frank Sinatra) starts having nightmares, he begins an authorized investigation into what happened in Manchuria and eventually reveals that the sergeant's brainwashing has transformed him into an unconscious assassin who can be triggered by his communist controllers at will. Although Sinatra is slightly miscast as a tortured intellectual, Harvey and the remaining cast are excellent, as is Richard Sylbert's inventively designed "brainwashing" sequence, Lionel Lindon's extraordinary depth-of-field camerawork, and David Amram's witty, neoclassical score.

Self-explanatory and fully comprehensible.
AWESOMELY acted. Dame Angela Lansbury is just incredible in her role, considering she was so young playing such an older woman. Her stern sincerity of character really stole the entire show and truly made it the huge hit that it became.

Well written and excellent acting. It has a nice blend of action + suspense
This Cold War-era political thriller is based on Richard Condon&apos;s novel of the same name. It involves 2 soldiers, Major Bennett Marco (Frank Sinatra) and Sgt Raymond Shaw(Laurence Harvey) who return from the Korean War, thanks to Shaw&apos;s heroism, only to enter different nightmares. Marco keeps having horrible dreams about their platoon that don&apos;t make sense. Shaw has to deal with his mother (Angela Lansbury) who is using his hero status to try and get her husband, Senator Iselen(James Gregory), elected to the White House. Janet Leigh appears in a small role as Marco&apos;s love interest Eugenie. This film was controversial at the time of it&apos;s release and still has relevant themes today.

Marco keeps having horrible dreams about their platoon that don&apos;t make sense. Shaw has to deal with his mother (Angela Lansbury) who is using his hero status to try and get her husband, Senator Iselen(James Gregory), elected to the White House. Janet Leigh appears in a small role as Marco&apos;s love interest Eugenie. This film was controversial at the time of it&apos;s release and still has relevant themes today. There are allusions to McCarthyism, references of Communism, multiple examples of hypnotic suggestion, and even Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) brought on by combat. All of these elements create a scary situation that is somewhat believable and sad at the same time. It has a few loose threads but is overall an entertaining story with a worst case scenario of how people can be manipulated by those we trust. The special edition dvd has some great extras including an interview with Sinatra, screenplay writer George Axelrod, and director John Frankenheimer. It also has an interview with Anglea Lansbury and commentary by Frankenheimer. These are wonderful additions for anyone wanting to know more about the film. I have viewed this movie and its 2004 remake staring Denzel Washington and this is definitely the better of the two. The new version lacks the Cold War elements, hypnotism, and Communist elements that make the original so haunting and memorable. They instead substitute physical brain implants and Multinational conglomerates as a more familiar foe that doesn&apos;t quite do the job. I was never scared of the old men planning evil behind closed doors in this updated adaptation. Give me long time foreign enemy governments who&apos;d like nothing better than to control our country through an unsuspecting war hero turned political candidate any day. I hope this review of the film and its dvd presentation if helpful.

Excellent Suspense/Political Thriller!
Directed by John Frankenheimer ("Ronin," "Raindeer Games), "The Manchurian Candidate" (1962) is an excellent suspense/political thriller and some crafty twists and turns leading up to a thrilling conclusion! Laurence Harvey plays a soldier Raymond Shaw returning from the Korean War, not knowing that he has been brainwashed by the enemy. Frank Sinatra plays a fellow soldier Bennet Marco, whose head was also messed with, and he must figure out what the enemy is planning and how to prevent it. Sinatra and Angela Lansbury (who plays Raymond's mom and was only three years older than Harvey!) turn in superb acting performances, but the best acting performance in the film is by Harvey.

Suspense film buffs will love this film! The film could have been edited a little bit better, as there are two or three scenes with extremely long dialog, but this is just a nitpick, and doesn't distract the viewer from enjoying this extraordinary film! Rated PG-13 Special Features on "The Manchurian Candidate: Special Edition" DVD include: Widescreen 1.75:1 B&W Audio Commentary by John Frankenheimer Interview with Frank Sinatra, George Axelrod, and John Frankenheimer "A Little Solitaire" featurette with William Friedkin "Queen Of Diamonds" featurette with Angela Lansbury Photo Gallery Original Theatrical Trailer Subtitles: English, Spanish, French Fans of classic "Black & White" films and suspense thrillers should definitely add this DVD to their collection. Everyone else should see this film, but would be satisfied with a rental.

The Better Candidate
There are two film versions of The Manchurian Candidate, Richard Condon's paranoid Cold War novel. While Jonathan Demme's 2004 movie is entertaining, John Frankenheimer's 1962 film is a classic. The Manchurian Candidate (1962, 126 min.) “Raymond Shaw is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I’ve ever known,” says Major Marco (Frank Sinatra). What makes him speak so affectionately about a man no one likes? The answer is Cold War paranoia, but darn entertaining. Using striking photography and almost no soundtrack, Frankenheimer spins a tense tale about the capture and programming of American soldiers during the Korean War, an ironically red-baiting politician, his steely wife, and political ambition that dwarfs All the King’s Men.

The Manchurian Candidate (1962, 126 min.) “Raymond Shaw is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I’ve ever known,” says Major Marco (Frank Sinatra). What makes him speak so affectionately about a man no one likes? The answer is Cold War paranoia, but darn entertaining. Using striking photography and almost no soundtrack, Frankenheimer spins a tense tale about the capture and programming of American soldiers during the Korean War, an ironically red-baiting politician, his steely wife, and political ambition that dwarfs All the King’s Men. Sinatra is natural in his role as the soldier whose nightmares about Raymond Shaw (Laurence Harvey) don’t quite jibe with reality. Angela Lansbury dominates her scenes as one of the least maternal mothers you will ever see (despite being only 37; Harvey was 34). As the Queen of Diamonds in a murderous game of solitaire, she makes Lady MacBeth seem like an underachiever. John McGiver hits the right notes as her political victim. Other key characters give performances that might ordinarily be criticized, yet work in the movie's surreal context. Harvey plays the cold Shaw with wooden acting and a European accent, but they fit his robotic character. James Gregory’s Sen. Iselin is hardly plausible as a blustery, over-the-top demagogue, yet he has remarkable presence. Janet Leigh plays Sinatra’s love interest with an odd, knowing mysteriousness that doesn’t make much sense, yet it adds to the uncanny tone of the film. Even the goofy fight between Sinatra and the Korean spy works, although the spy doesn’t look Korean, punches don’t quite land, and furniture breaks too easily. The story is taut and, despite paranoid overstatement, surprisingly real. Its pace is sure and its humor wry. The Manchurian Candidate (2004, 130 min.) Obey your mother. Demme makes some changes in updating Frankenheimer’s mind-control classic. It begins in Kuwait, rather than Korea; makes Shaw (Liev Schreiber) a candidate for the vice presidency, rather than his father; places Shaw on the floor of the convention, rather than in the eaves; and changes Marco’s (Denzel Washington) role in the climactic scene. Otherwise, it apes the 1962 thriller’s major details faithfully, although not as convincingly. As in the original, Marco was Shaw’s superior officer when his patrol was ambushed. Neither has a clear recollection of what happened next, except that Shaw returns to receive the Congressional Medal of Honor, and Marco becomes a career military officer with bad dreams. Meryl Streep takes over Lansbury's part as a driven political mother (she’s a Senator here). The main failing of Demme’s version is that it plays things totally straight, lacking the original’s dark humor. The absence of the Sen. Iselin character here leaves a void. While the original had flaws, its odd logic worked as entertainment. Here, Demme gives us some new dramatic—and entertaining—episodes, but they sometimes weaken the story’s appeal. E.g., Marco dramatically removes his implant with a knife and bites out Shaw’s, yet it has no adverse effect on the mind control of either. Also, Demme gives us a back story about the mysterious woman who is interested in Marco, giving the movie a more conventional feel.

In the vein of Psycho
This movie reminds me a lot of Psycho after Psycho. It’s really a strange, confusing movie. It had me guessing constantly. The cinematography in this movie is well thought out and not very traditional—but good. (I love nontraditional camerawork.) It’s really quite grand, and could have been played with more close-ups. But I like it best this way. Laurence Harvey gave a really truly great performance. However, he didn’t deserve an Oscar (and didn’t get one, I don’t think). Frank Sinatra was perfect for his part as the major. The actress who played the mother was well suited to her part. The story concerns a group of soldiers, two in particular, who were in the Korean War and were “brainwashed” by some communists in the war. Raymond (Harvey) has become their trained ...

But he doesn’t know it. He doesn’t remember it. The movie itself is scary sometimes. Not in blood and gore stuff. But in just implications and thoughts. It is sad and a little depressing. But it ends on an up-beat and doesn’t have the cynicism of Billy Wilder. I would have liked a happier ending, but that’s it, and the way it stands is great. It just isn’t THE best.
