I sort of liked the idea of the MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE remake when I read the cast list....and then I watched it - it was terrible.
To begin with, they gave Mrs. Iselin a first name - Eleanor, sort of sounds like Hillary, doesn't it? And Meryl Streep wore her hair exactly like HRC and spoke and moved like her.... NOW idiots writing about the ORIGINAL film, call Angela Lansbury's character "Eleanor".....
