When his army unit was ambushed during the first Gulf War, Sergeant Raymond Shaw saved his fellow soldiers as well as his commanding officer, then-Captain Ben Marco, was knocked unconscious. Brokering the incident for political capital, Shaw finally to a vice-presidential candidate, while Marco is Haunted by dreams of what happened - or did not happen - in Kuwait. As Marco (now in A Major) investigates, the story begins to unravel, to the point where he questions if it happened. Is it possible, the entire unit was kidnapped and brainwashed to believe Shaw is a war hero as part of a plot to take the White House? Some very powerful people in the Manchurian Global society appear desperate to stop him from the search for out.

John Frankenheimer's surreal direction and George Axelrod's 1959 adaptation of the book of the same name, Laurence Harvey a career defining role .
Set in 1950, a Korean War veteran Raymond Shaw (Harvey) returns home to a Medal of Honor for rescuing his POW train from behind Chinese lines and back to safety. One of the returning soldiers, (effectively played by Frank Sinatra), however, has recurring dreams of his train against brainwashing and Shaw commit acts of murder.
He finally convinced that the army brass Shaw is still a puppet of his communist Marxist-operators.
Angela Lansbury, (although barely a few years older than Harvey was at the time) plays his mother in a tour de force. You absolutely captivates and steals every scene she is in, playing a very complex role that needs to convince the viewer on many things, without much dialogue.
There is a rich cast of characters, including Janet Leigh, Henry Silva, James Edwards, and a painfully precise James Gregory. Each character weaves through the methodical and associated acts tapestry from Frankenheimer's masterpiece "Hitchcockian" pace.
I will not betray the act but Dear readers, allow me to sit, that this is really worth seeing - until the nail-biting and cooling degree.
There are many undertones in this film - political, sexual, class and power, and socially. You will want to see this movie several times to approach it from different perspectives.
