Your best political thriller movie

[Southpaw]

Just one. Well maybe 2.

3 Days of the Condor.

No Way Out (1987).

 

[Chaplin]

JFK

 

[BillsCarnage]

Lots of good ones. I know it's not a thriller, but Wag the Dog.

The Devils Double is one of my favs.

Did have a bit of a thrilling ending in that Dustin Hoffman was escorted out of the building to an uncertain fate,

I actually gave copies of that movie as Xmas gifts last year.

I am about 92% sure that Dustin Hoffman was taken to the place they buried Jimmy Hoffa

Three Days of the Condor is a good choice.

But the best is easily The Parallax View, with Warren Beatty. If you haven't seen it, check it out immediately. You will thank me later.
