I concur, this was one of those classic series I had planned to see for years and recently bought the blu-ray edition. I wasn't disappointed. Thanks to 35mm it really shines on Blu-ray. It's remarkable that McGoohan got a free hand with this project. I'm not sure if an actor today would have the freedom to lay out his vision in such a way. What is an individual? McGoohan’s series hooked a mass TV audience with its intelligent, clever, thrilling and entertaining scripts. Each episode was an event that left the audience either bewildered and angered, or enthralled and inspired. This was part of McGoohan’s intention, to create debate, have the viewers question their own reality. As McGoohan put it in this interview: http://dangerousminds.net/comments/we_are_all_prisoners_patr... And the the book that accompanies that interview "The Prisoner Puzzle" can be found here: It does come come with interpretations for all of the 17 episodes which some might consider spoilers. https://www.scribd.com/doc/22260199/The-Prisoner-Puzzle |
