The Manchurian Candidate (1962)

The Oscar nominated The Manchurian Candidate (1962) brings one of the public’s biggest fears to life. When a former prisoner of war, Major Ben Marco (Frank Sinatra) is rescued and returns home he is hailed as a true American hero. He spends his days helping other veterans cope with their injuries (both physical and mental) as they return from the war in Korea. As things unfold, one of Marco’s men, a Medal of Honor recipient, runs for political office, but Marco discovers that the communists may have brainwashed him and are using him as a spy.

Laurence Harvey plays the title role and shows off his sexy side when he relaxes by a lake in his bathing suit while a woman helps him with a cut on his leg. We get to see his nice upper body as he chills out and checks her out.
