Rather enjoyable, utterly bizarre thriller, which begins effectively in a blackout and quickly becomes a nightmare for 'accountant' Gregory Peck. Along the way he encounters a woman who seems to know him, Diane Baker (
Marnie, The Prize), a PI on his first case (the wonderful Matthau), a dismissive psychoanalyst (Robert H Harris) and several bad guys - Jack Weston (
Wait Until Dark, Cactus Flower), George Kennedy and Kevin McCarthy. With Leif Erickson, Walter Abel and Hari Rhodes (
Shock Corridor).
Expertly shot by Joe MacDonald, good music from Quincy Jones, written by Charade's Peter Stone (from Walter Ericson novel 'Fallen Angel'). Universal.
