Plot Summary

A New Yorker awakens to find himself in a place called "The Village" run by a man known as "Two". As everyone in The Village is referred to only by a number, everyone in The Village refers to him as Six, but he knows he has another name and seems to have some idea who he is. He is told he lives in The Village, and that The Village is the only reality there is. Six's mission becomes to find out where The Village is, who Two is, and why he is seemingly keeping him prisoner in The Village despite Two telling him that he is a free man, and how he can escape to his life back in New York City. Six must learn who among the Villagers he can trust (among Villagers such as a doctor named 313, a cab driver named 147, and Two's own son, 11-12) in his quest to escape from The Village. Six also has recurring memories of his life in New York City, including an encounter with a woman named Lucy, which could be part of the key to discovering why he's in The Village. Written by Huggo

Trivia "Be seeing you" is a commonly-heard phrase in The Prisoner (1967), this movie, and was also one of Patrick McGoohan's catchphrases in Danger Man (1960) and Secret Agent (1964) . McGoohan's character "Johnny Cousin" (a pot-smoking drummer) in All Night Long (1962) uses the phrase also when he says goodbye to the road manager "Berger" towards the end of the movie. See more »
