The President’s Analyst (1967)

At first honored to be chosen for the job, James Coburn soon discovers that being the President’s analyst is the loneliest job in the world and makes a run for it with spy agencies from across the world on his tail. I had started this thinking it was going to be a straight-forward narrative like an Analyze This but with the President. Instead, the President isn’t ever shown and it doesn’t take long for the film to firmly establish itself as being part of the swinging, psychedelic 1960s. Coburn is fantastic in his role with a wide grin that appears as he slowly begins to lose his grounding. There are many weird, but hilarious parts, but William Daniels as a gun-toting, suburban liberal is pure awesomeness.
