The movie featured a riveting performance by Angela Lansbury<ref>http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001450/</ref> as the brilliant, controlling mother who manipulated both her husband and her son to realize her dream of a communist takeover of the [[United States]].  Her husband was a parody of Senator [[Joseph McCarthy]], who brandishes a list of 57 card carrying communists.  He got the 57 off a bottle of ketchup.
