77% Rotten Tomatoes 🍅 In this lively satire, psychiatrist Sidney Schaefer (James Coburn) is recruited by the U.S. government to serve as the president's own top-secret psychoanalyst. On call at all hours and privy to the leader's most private thoughts, Schaefer develops paranoia, which turns out to be warranted, since numerous international agencies are out to get him for his highly classified knowledge. Aided by spy Don Masters (Godfrey Cambridge), Schaefer must survive the many attempts on his life.

About this product

Product Information

Theodore Flicker's satirical comedy skewers Cold War politics, psychiatry, spy films, and the 1960s counterculture all in one fell swoop. When the U.S. President begins to feel overwhelmed by the duties of his job, respected psychiatrist Dr. Sidney Schaefer (James Coburn) is called in to help him relieve the stress. Schaefer soon feels the pressure of keeping all the President's secrets and decides to resign his post. When he finds himself in danger from both Soviet and American agents who want his former patient's political secrets, a comical chase ensues through the hippie subculture of 1960s America.
