    It's 1962 and the Cold War is raging in this classic thriller. The Communists have infiltrated the highest reaches of the American political system and it's up to Frank Sinatra to stop them. Jim and Gary agree that this is one of the most exciting political films ever made, although Gary has more qualms about its plausibility than Jim does.

    Before he was a stiff figure on the one dollar bill, George Washington was a hot-blooded ambitious striver who made a lot of mistakes. "Young Washington" illustrates how the father of our country learned to be great through his early failures. It's also a thrilling war movie.
