Suddenly (1954), The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956), and The Manchurian Candidate (1962) In this film block, Jeremy and Brian breakdown these post-war, pre-JFK assassination films.

And there are a lot of eerie similarities to the details of these movies and the Kennedy assassination...almost enough to give you a sense of creeping paranoia.
