| | 2. Seven Days in May | 
| Starring: Burt Lancaster, Kirk Douglas, Fredric March, Ava Gardner, Edmond O'Brien
Directed By: John Frankenheimer
May 16, 2000
Simply put, Lancaster's and Douglas's acting are enough to give this movie excellent ratings. The story line of course is very relevant to today's events where a pacifist President is in the office and the military is more hawkish. So, it is one of those few movies that will never age and will never get old or irrelevant. Basic story line is wonderfully directed and presented. I wish they had developed... more

| | 5. The Manchurian Candidate (Special Edition) |
| Starring: Frank Sinatra, Laurence Harvey, Janet Leigh, Angela Lansbury, Henry Silva
Directed By: John Frankenheimer
July 13, 2004
...The original Frankenheimer version was a Classic and never should have been re-made. The Denzel Washington, Merly Streep politically correct version was twisted around to beat up on Corporate American Capitalism and was manipulative. I for one refuse to be manipulated by Hollywood agendas so I ignored the re-make and treated it as pure gargage.
...The only fly in the ointment... more

| | 6. Andersonville |
| Starring: Jarrod Emick, Frederic Forrest, Ted Marcoux, Carmen Argenziano, Jayce Bartok
Directed By: John Frankenheimer
June 01, 2004
'Andersonville' is a really fine film made about the infamous prison camps. It has a group of characters that the viewer can identify with and also contains very good acting. I think the twin story lines in the film are handled excellently. The storyline on trying to tunnel out of the prison is handled excellently and contains very interesting details on a operation of this kind. The other story line... more

| Starring: Michael Gambon, Donald Sutherland, Alec Baldwin, Bruce McGill, James Frain

March 25, 2003
Features:- PATH TO WAR tells the inside story of how "the best and the brightest" advisors in the Johnson administration, including Defense Secretary Robert McNamara and special advisor Clark Clifford, counsel the President in the decisions that will lead to America's deeper and deeper engagement in Vietnam.Torn between those who recommend increased bombing to win, and those who advise a path be found to pea
Path to War is a fine movie. It shows the gradual steps that rationalized America's increased involvement in an undesirable war. This is not an action movie; however, it is a very important study on how well-intentioned presidents lose control while wielding control. And, of course, they are then left to face the consequences of their weighty decisions while the former manipulative politicians bail... more
