Re: McGoohan in Crazy Sci-Fi Soft Porn Movie….

Where were McGoohan’s moral values then? 😯 *No. 5’s head explodes* Oops, wrong movie, though the collective consciousness reminds me a bit of Scanners; there are also obvious similarites in your description to The Prisoner.

I haven’t seen it, sounds very interesting. Perhaps McGoohan was looking to expand his repertoire, or just wanted a job. According to the following site (link now found at bottom of post :oops:) his performance was superb (I’ve never seen him less than very good in anything), and he certainly has actively chosen, or solicited projects (and roles) with psychological and philosophical concerns (underpinnings). And there’s more than one way to explore the qualities of virtue — Quills (good example of yours) was an interesting study. Without decadence, or amorality, can there be virtue? Just thought that question segued half-decently (or maybe not quite half) into this quote from Mcgoohan’s character in Hysteria “Grandeur is not a delusion; it’s a birthright.” Now how Sade is that?
