I had always thought that when RFK went to Los Angeles the Vatican in St Joseph’s Church would it tell him about the Manchurian candidate being created. It looks like I was wrong it was John frankenheimer who directed The Manchurian Canada in 1962 possibly in conjunction with the Catholics.
He had covered 1,200 miles in 12 hours before spending the night at the Malibu beachfront home of John Frankenheimer. The choice of Frankenheimer would prove ironic. Frankenheimer had directed the film The Manchurian Candidate, in which a U.S. soldier is captured in Manchuria, hypnotized by Communists, and sent back to the U.S. to be used as a mind-controlled assassin. Before the next 24 hours were over, a consultant to that film would suggest on the radio that Robert Kennedy’s assailant had been hypnotically programmed. Shortly before his death, that consultant would also claim to have been the assailant’s hypnotist.
