Ep. 164- The Manchurian Candidate (1962)

A Little Game of Solitaire .

It’s July 4th and Front Row Classics is taking a not-so-nice look at American government & politics. 1962’s The Manchurian Candidate was an oddity when it was released. Yet, the ensuing decades have proven it to be eerily relevant and timeless. Ryan Lootens and Steve Sykes join Brandon to break down the political thriller. The hosts cover the unforgettable performances of Frank Sinatra, Laurence Harvey and Angela Lansbury. Lansbury’s performance remains of the most menacing and diabolical portrayals in film history. We also cover topics such as the film’s expert direction by John Frankenheimer, the many theories regarding Janet Leigh’s character and the 2004 remake.

FEATURING: Brandon Davis, Ryan Lootens and Steve Sykes.
