THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE
April 23, 2018  | By David Bianculli

MGM HD, 10:00 p.m. ET

 

Denzel Washington starred in a movie remake of this thrilling political drama in 2004, but this is the 1962 original. It’s the one that gave Frank Sinatra one of his best film roles ever, and presented a scary story about political assassination and nefarious motivations that resonated with frightening power just a year later, when President John F. Kennedy was assassinated. Laurence Harvey, Janet Leigh and Angela Lansbury star.
