This is another episode I’ve been looking forward to for a year or so. John Frankenheimer is one of the greatest filmmakers of all-time, but also someone who doesn’t get their due respect. In the 1960s he directed a trilogy of thrillers that delve into the anxieties of a changing political and societal landscape, and in preparing for this episode, they all continue to exert a hold now, and feel very relevant in their own ways. Join myself and actor Timothy J. Cox as we discuss “The Manchurian Candidate”<\/i><\/a>, “Seven Days in May”<\/i><\/a> and “Seconds”<\/i><\/a>. I hope you enjoy!<\/p>\n The closing piece is “To Be Continued\/End Credits”<\/i>, composed by Brian Skutle, from his original score for the short film “The Case: Running Deadman”<\/i>.<\/p>\n Episode 140 – John Frankenheimer’s Paranoia Trilogy<\/b>
