A remake to the 1962 "The Manchurian Candidate," this updated version stars Denzel Washington as the tormented Major Bennett Marco and Liev Schreiber as Sgt. Raymond Shaw. After the war their lives took completely different turns, with Shaw living in the present as the Vice-Presidential candidate and Marco living in the past haunted with unpleasant and disturbing memories. Based upon the film screenplay by George Axelrod and the novel by Richard Condon. (Tricia Littrell)
