A man (James Garner) wearing an expensive gray suit finds himself in Central Park in New York City not knowing who he is or how he got there. His amnesia even extends to the fact that he doesn't know how he takes his coffee. All he has in his possession is a crumpled piece of paper wrapped around a couple of pills, the paper also has a scribbled telephone number. He is also wearing a ring with a broken stone, the ring engraved from its giver with his or her monogram, G.V. The telephone number takes him to a woman who doesn't know who he is. Based on what she calls him and some item association, he begins to call himself "Sam Buddwing" if anyone asks him. As he wanders New York City in a daze, he believes he may be an escaped mental patient based on a newspaper story, his clothes, and the monogrammed ring. But a vision of a young brunette makes him remember a woman in his life named Grace. He manages to spend time with a few women during the day, many times believing that woman is Grace. His time with these women triggers happy and not-so-happy memories of Grace. Time with one of the women who he knows is not Grace may provide the strongest trigger to remembering who he and Grace are and why he was in Central Park in such a despondent state.

| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzFailed attempt to go the Hitchcock 'who am I' route in Spellbound. |
| User Reviewjay nDamn, this movie was great! It had Rockford in black and white, looking all hot, Angela Lansbury acting like a slut, Jean Simmons trying to outdo her as slut of the year, and a cab driver who gets the drive of his life. Both hilarious and sad. The ending was a little bit of a letdown, but whatever. It was pretty unique for a 1966 film. Nice jazzy soundtrack, photography. Caught my attention right away on TCM, so sad that it isn't on DVD. I mean, a man with amnesia that names himself after the combo of a beer truck and an airplane - how can you not make that available to the masses? There's some video on TCM online, and maybe they have it elsewhere online. |
| User ReviewAllan CA novel idea, well developed with a spectacular cast. |
| User ReviewLauren Mgood stuff very surreal like a dream (in NY). |
| User ReviewJim Gthe cinematography was in the "hip" 60's style. a man trying to find his memory. James Garner gave a good performance. all the beautiful women he pursued - inadvertently - were more than willing to help him. it was interesting. there were good things. he gave a great performance. the Americanization of Emily remains his very best romance. |
| User ReviewTrent MThis is a strange film not for it's subject matter, nor narrative/ directorial approaches, but because, while every sequence is quite good by itself, the sum of these parts never seems to gel into a very good movie. The delivery of much of the dialogue is often stilted, but I took that as more of a consequence of the "world" of the movie. |
| User ReviewTimothy JThis is one weird little movie. Hitchcock-esq. absent Hitchcock's talent. You can't stop watching it though. The story and the characters do keep you engaged. |
