But I was able to post these clips from You Tube. I just googled it and they have it on Netflix but I think you have to watch it from England. HUH? I do not know how to do Netflix but here is the link that I was using and people have been able to watch it.

this is more like a documentary is correct. I remembered the ending the most...when he is shot on live TV and there are a bunch of TV screens switching to other channels for more "entertainment" right afterwards. This is why I miss VHS and being able to record and save stuff. TCM should run this 24/7 like a public service announcement. Ben Mankiewicz, who hosts TCM, slips in political movies at appropriate times during particular, relevant events (like the Manchurian Candidate) since he is a strong liberal.
