Movie Reviews of The President's Analyst
Movie Review: Hilariously funny
Summary: 4 Stars
What a great movie. It is so funny and telling of its time. I love the scenes with the "average American family" - the guns, the judo, the son's Jr. Spy kit, the liberal jargon - with William Daniels ("Mr. Feeny" from Boy Meets World) putting in a great performance as the father of the family, Winn Quantrill. As many times as I've watched it I can't help but laugh out loud when the camera pulls up from the "hippy" scene in the grassy field when each of the assassins, in turn, have been killed - with Sydney (James Coburn) and the hippy chick "Snow White" (Jill Banner) totally oblivious. And of course there's the surprise discovery of who the real "bad guy" turns out to be - TPC. Hilarious movie!
Summary of The President's Analyst
Greenwich Village satirist Theordore J. Flicker made one of the zaniest spy spoofs of the '60s--the ultimate in paranoia and conspiracy. James Coburn stars as a hip New York psychiatrist recruited by his mentor to take on the president as his exclusive patient. After quitting his job because of the stress, he's forced to go into hiding when spies from all sides want to know his secrets. The social and political satire never lets up, as the usually unflappable Coburn becomes completely neurotic. Godfrey Cambridge is hilarious as his cohort and former patient (his opening monologue about self-hatred is a classic), and so is Severn Darden, who plays a charming Russian agent. A true original with the utmost retro appeal today. --Bill DesowitzClassics DVD Video
