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 Desowitz Read more...

Liberia: ?We Will Strive to Be America's Success Story"

04.07.11

President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf has made his first speech to the joint chambers of Congress on March 15, 2006, at a crucial moment in the history of Liberia.

It did so also when the Bush administration and the American people have begun to raise sighs of relief, after leading the global effort in restoring mental health in Liberia and funding and monitoring of its first elections democratic.

It did so most of all, when the U.S. was counting the cost of its involvement in hot spots around the globe and thought it was time to start tightening the screws on foreign aid and focusing on national challenges.

If you have Turner Classic Movies (and really, you should) and enjoy offbeat spy movies, tune in at 7 tonight for one of my all-time favorites, THE PRESIDENT’S ANALYST .

The late, great James Coburn stars in the title role as a psychiatrist with the most powerful patient in the world. Trouble is, having access to all those secret thoughts makes him a target for every assassin and spy agency on the planet. The only ones he can trust, in fact, are a CIA agent (Godfrey Cambridge) and his KGB counterpart (Serven Darden), two guys who happen to be best friends despite (or maybe because of) the fact that they’re employed by opposite sides of the Iron Curtain.
