| Year: | 1992 |

| Writer: | Brian De Palma |
| Cast: | John Lithgow, Lolita Davidovich, Gabrielle Carteris |
A confusing thriller about a renowned psychologist (Lithgow) who suffers a fractured personality after the emotional trauma of his wife's infidelity.
My memory of the film is of a Lynch-like tale where you never know which parts are the reality and which are the fantasy, or maybe that's just because the fractured nature of the story confused me.
Mostly I remember the brutal, kick in the stomach shock of the mortuary worker tearing back the sheet from the dead woman, her face drawn back in a frozen scream of terror and her eyes looking straight into the camera.
