With films like Capricorn One, Three Days of the Condor and The Parallax View, the Watergate scandal meant the 1970s was the golden age of Hollywood conspiracy thrillers. OR WAS IT?! Join us at the Popcorn Counter this episode as we keep our heads down and ask in quiet voices if conspiracy cinema is not as simple as it first appears. Klute and The Manchurian Candidate predated Watergate. While Captain America: The Winter Soldier and the Jason Bourne films were popular with people who’d never heard of Nixon. Which hard boiled Disney animation is like ‘Chinatown for eleven year olds’? Is the Manchurian Candidate remake worth watching? And which conspiracy classic features a fourteen minute fist fight?
