Lawrence of Arabia is generally the most admired motion picture released in 1962, while The Manchurian Candidate is the most admired strictly political film to come out that year. We, however, find the former much too long and the latter much too outlandish. We, however, much prefer Wendell Mayes's literate script (from Allen Drury's novel) about political backstabbing and blackmailing in the American Congress; the mostly excellent performances from an array of Hollywood veterans including Henry Fonda, Walter Pidgeon, Lew Ayres, and Burgess Meredith; and Otto Preminger's solid directorial hand, all of which have contributed to make Advise & Consent our film of choice for 1962.
