Mirage (1965)
Country: US
Technical: bw 109m
Director: Edward Dmytryk
Cast: Gregory Peck, Diane Baker, Walter Abel, Walter Matthau
Synopsis:
An accountant emerges from a New York office building with amnesia, and an executive lies dead on the sidewalk. His mind full of unanswered questions and images, he is pursued by a criminal organization and helped by a beautiful woman he may have known before.
Review:
Crisp looking psychological thriller in unconventional black and white, with Peck again trawling through his unconscious as he did in Spellbound. There is an agreeably free approach to editing in the memory flashbacks, though the film needs to get its attitude to point of view straight in such subjective sequences!
