Trying to escape his guilt after accidentally killing his fiancee's brother, Peter Watson (Attenborough) changes his name and takes a rooms in a delapidated boarding house. There, his mental health rapidly deteriorates, and his fellow lodgers call the police after his erratic behaviour causes concern. But when Watson begins brandishing a gun, and a police sergeant is injured, matters quicky come to a head. (texte officiel du distributeur)

The amazing Richard Attenborough acts amazingly in the lead role of an oppressive psychological drama in the middle of the night the three floors of an ordinary house. The story does not wait for anything and gains momentum right after the opening credits. The individual subtenants, who get into a conflict with Mr. Wilson/Watson and later become onlookers and participants in police maneuvers, are also very well written and each of them has a bit of a different view of the situation. It gradually reveals what is happening and why, and I had a very good time. I'd almost say this movie is the ancestor of Falling Down.
