You've prompted me to take another look at Frankenheimer's filmography. It reminded me that his name in the credits is a signifier of quality. He made a number of films I rate highly, my favourite being Seconds.

Seconds is my second favorite ironicaLLy enough, with Manchurian Candidate the first. That's a killer perfotmance by Angela Lansbury.
