From: blp Category: Art Date: 11 November 2007 Time: 12:54 PM Review: I went for The Manchurian Candidate (remake). Robyn Hitchcock was in it! Along with various other surprising cameos including Fab 5 Freddy. It was good and, mind control implants and all, more true to life than any of Poliakoff's silly melanges of clichéed English eccentricity and business life. After all, America really is on the verge of being taken over by corporate fascism. Poliakoff wasn't even in the running.
