The President's Analyst (1967)
Country: US
Technical: col/scope 104m
Director: Theodore J. Flicker
Cast: James Coburn, Godfrey Cambridge, Severn Darden
Synopsis:
A psychoanalyst is hired by the CEA and FBR (sic) to work for the president, which he finds so gruelling he takes unpaid holiday and finds himself kidnapped or shot at by agents of every kidney.
Review:
This curiosity certainly doesn't take itself too seriously in its irreverent swipes at the espionage genre and Cold War paranoia, and contains sequences of some style, but like many Sixties creations has trouble defining the line between meaningful satire and amiable romp.
