Amnesia Minor 


>
|
|
|
An American
wakes up in a London hospital not knowing who |
|
he is. The
first 5 minutes of the film are spent in a |
|
psychiatrist's office establishing that he has been in a car
|
|
crash in
which he has lost his memory. However long he has |
|
been in
hospital he has become involved with a nurse. |
|
He hires a
private investigator to find out who has been paying for his
medical treatment and who is the woman in the photo he was
carrying. One presumes that he has been in a private hospital if
he had to pay and nothing is said about who pays for the p.i.
It also turns out he has the keys to an expensive appartment.
He learns the woman in the photo was stabbed to death,
and then he sees her. But he's also having hallucinations. At this point the plot gets more complex and
|
|
more
improbable and for the umpteenth time amnesia is a |
|
plot device
to (hopefully) create tension and mystery. In this |
|
case the
acting, script and direction are very weak. |
