What
This is my first attempt at trying to build a Wiki-like knowledge base on top of the Flutterby content management system.
This is a place for explanation, description and static links on a topic that's either too broad to be covered under a single link, or that you're just too lazy to find the real link to.

There are two films titled The Manchurian Candidate![[Wiki]](/adbanners/lookingglass.png){kind=small}
. The first was directed by John Frankenheimer, starred Frank Sinatra, and was released in 1962 (IMDB page), the second was directed by Jonathan Demme with Denzel Washington(IMDB page).
They're very different films, the first lifted lines directly from Joseph McCarthy of the (in)famous House Unamerican Activities Commission, down to a chillingly hilarious reason for the "there are 57 Communists in the State Department" line, the second took a more pedestrian "shadow corporations controll everything" conspiracy theory line.
