This is a good thriller with lots of creepy touches. Roy Scheider is a recently divorced Manhattan psychiatrist. One of his patients is murdered and both the police and the victim's beautiful girlfriend (Meryl Streep) who seems to be the top suspect contact him. There is an immediate romantic attraction between Scheider and Streep and Scheider attempts to solve the murder using information the deceased man revealed to him during his twice weekly appointments. The most important info is a disturbing dream which is reenacted on screen in a memorable and truly chilling manner.The deceased and Streep's character worked together at "Christen's" auction house specializing in antiquities and much of the film is set in this affluent world of high end art. Manhattan at night is used to good effect throughout the film and a fine soundtrack also enhances the atmosphere. Meryl Streep is especially good and needed to learn no new dialect or alter her own lovely appearance for this part. The ending is more than a little contrived and pretty improbable but the movie is very worth watching for any lovers of Streep or thrillers influenced by Alfred Hitchcock. |
