VIDEO: "CONELRAD.com PSA: Dan O'Herlihy" -- Actor in 1952 "Invasion USA" who went to "The Enemy" for the most contradictory reason.

After that movie about "The Enemy" (the USSR) attacking the U.S. to impose communism he now mocks, he did a film in the old USSR. He spent months at an isolated village that rarely received supplies. O'Herlihy concludes from this that the USSR could never be a threat, because they couldn't even supply their own people. He then as a result becomes an avowed socialist. It never occurred to him that he had become an adherent to a system he viewed as being unable to support its own people, or that part of that might be the excessive military spending that indeed made it a threat.
