The Parallax View (Imprint Collection #94)

The Parallax View, a superb drama about one man's paranoia that turns out to be total, incredible fact, ranks amount the best political thrillers. Warren Beatty is a news reporter who, along with seven others, witnesses the assassination of a political candidate. When the other seven die in “accidents,” the newsman begins to doubt the official position that a lone madman was responsible for the crime. He imagines a sophisticated network of highly trained murderers. But his nightmares pale against the bizarre truth he uncovers.

Critic Reviews:

• " In many ways, Alan J. Pakula's 1974 film feels closer to reality now than it did upon release. " – David Harris (Spectrum Culture)

• " the quintessential paranoid conspiracy thriller of the Watergate era " – James Kendrick (Q Network Film Desk)

• " Forget The Exorcist, Alien, and even Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band – The Parallax View might well be the scariest movie of the 1970s. " – Matt Brunson (Film Frenzy)
