Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis: |
Unusually constructed film noir thriller about an L. A. gumshoe who tries to help a woman with amnesia, and finds they are both connected--in a strange twist of reincarnation--to a notorious forty-year-old murder. Intriguing, and great fun to see Branagh playing an American, but ultimately the story is too dense, and too artificial, to really work. And talk about artificial--dig that aging makeup for Garcia! Williams appears as one of Branagh's sources.
