Directed by Annabel Jankel and Rocky Morton • 1988 • United States
Starring Dennis Quaid, Meg Ryan, Charlotte Rampling
Time is running out for university professor Dexter Cornell (Dennis Quaid). He has just twenty-four hours to unravel the bitter truth surrounding his own poisoning. In his desperate search, everyone’s a suspect, even the woman who loves him (Meg Ryan). The third of no less than five versions to date of the ingenious thriller originally filmed in 1950, this compulsively entertaining take on the story of a walking dead man distinguishes itself with its hyperstylized neonoir look and cunning sense of irony.
