About:
From the novel by Ellery Queen, this is a gripping and mesmerizing thriller with an exceptional cast. Anthony Perkins stars as Charles Van Horn, the troubled adopted son of tycoon Theo Van Horn (Orson Welles). Charles suffers from disturbing bouts of amnesia and is becoming increasingly worried about the missing segments of his life. When he awakes one morning in a strange hotel room with blood on his hands, Charles contacts an old doctor friend in the hope that he can alleviate the problem. Paul goes to stay at the Van Horn country estate where he meets Helene, Theo Van Horn's young wife. Charles and Helene reveal that they are having a passionate affair, but their happiness has been threatened by a blackmailer. A trap to catch the blackmailer fails and as deceit, betrayal and fear spread with all four trying to cover up the affair, the mysterious blackmailer makes contact again, triggering Charles' amnesia and leading to murder and a final betrayal
