Summary: While driving one evening, Harold Pelham appears possessed and has a car accident. While on the operating table, there even appears to be two heartbeats on the monitor. When he awakes, Pelham finds his life has been turned upside-down: he learns that he now supports a merger that he once opposed, and that he apparently is having an affair. People claim they have seen him in places that he has never been. Does Pelham have a doppelganger - or is he going insane? (imdb)

Very much of its time, but with a strong central premise and performance from Moore. Some nice allegory about the social changes happening at the time, and a memorable hallucinatory sequence at the end.

Fine, if occasionally overwrought thriller, spends far too much time before revealing its fairly obvious secret. Moore (far removed from Bond) is stiff to start with, but gets better as the film progresses; supporting cast is fairly weak (and saddled with some (intentionally?) laughable dialogue), though ever reliable Rodgers as a few good moments. While it ultimately lacks focus, it is fun for fans of Moore (and a particular type of old fashioned twee British thriller.)

Dull retread of the "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" episode "The Case of Mr. Pelham". Slow and confusing, but with a solid Brit supporting cast -- especially Jones as a logic-minded psychiatrist. Favorite Moore line: "I'm not James Bond of Her Majesty's secret service, you know!"

A decent but very aged thriller probably most interesting for seeing a pre-Bond Roger Moore playing a distinctly different character.
