Which political films do you enjoy watching?

[BigmanPigman]

TCM is showing films with a political agenda this month.

No matter how often I have seen them I still watch them over and over.

My favorites right now are A Face In The Crowd, Network and The Manchurian Candidate.

6. Redford has quite a Portfolio.

Also in this category, the Way We Were.

[Klarkashton]

7. He was gold in those days.

[BigmanPigman]

5. Yes!

I watched half of it last night. I have seen it before but I still like it enough to watch again.

[Tarzanrock]

3. Advice and Consent

Otto Preminger's masterpiece. What a cast! What a movie!

[mucifer]

8. "A Face In The Crowd " With Andy Griffith. It was made when tv was just starting and

it predicted a lot of crap that goes on today.

[MLAA]

9. The series Diplomat on Netflix is very good.

17. Just finished Season 2 last night.

What a stunning ending. They're currently filming Season 3. Hope they don't make us wait a year. The writing and acting are superb.

11. A short list

All the Presidents Men
Milk

[Raven123]

12. All the King's Men

[Xavier Breath]

13. Ides of March with Ryan Gosling and George Clooney.

It's a newer movie. Takes place during a Democratic presidential primary in Ohio. Lots of intrigue and scheming.

[Lochloosa]

14. Dave.

I like comedies.

[Tarzanrock]

15. Two more ...

The Last Hurrah
The Lion in Winter

[50 Shades Of Blue]

16. The Manchurian Candidate, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.

I could only watch A Face in the Crowd once. It was just too prescient in some ways. (Manchurian Candidate was too.) I also liked The Last Hurrah, but I've only seen that once.

18. 12 Days of the Condor

among many many others

[JoseBalow]

21. Three

The film title is Three Days of the Condor.

Based on the book, Six Days of the Condor by James Grady

19. seven days in may

[Aristus]

20. "The American President", Aaron Sorkin's 1994 proto-West Wing film.

I love it. Absolutely love it.

[PJMcK]

23. President Shepard's speech

At the end of the film. Most excellent.

22. Another vote for The American President.

This movie, and The West Wing, and Downton Abbey (altho it is not purely political) are what I call my mental comfort food. I have watched all 3 so many times I've lost count.
