| Loved this movie when I saw it many years ago - but the TV cut from the 1970s deletes a bunch of stuff and adds a long hippy commune sequence that was cut from the theatrical version. So, which version is this DVD? |

| "The President's Analyst" is a pleasant surprise. It's a consistently amusing cold-war comedy that lightly tweaks at everyone's most paranoid fears about espionage, government beauracracy, and monopolistic public utilities among other things. Being the sixties, it also sends up suburban liberals, hippies, and yes, psycho-therapy. James Coburn is brilliant as the analyst who finds that taking on the job as the President's analyst makes him the target of competing interests, some benevolent and some not so. The movie really takes hold when his paranoia starts to set in. Good supporting cast that includes Godfrey Cambridge as a U.S. spy and Severn Darden as an affable Soviet spy. My favorite bit has to involve William Daniels as the gun-toting self-proclaimed suburban liberal. |
