While looking for a war in
Africa, Jack Nicholson’s disaffected
journalist stumbles across a dead
businessman who looks a lot like him.
He takes up the corpse’s ID and slips
into a netherworld of international
intrigue and blurring identity with
both his old life and his new life on his heels. Michelangelo Antonioni’s cinematic existentialism meshes well with New Hollywood ennui, for a couple of hours. -Lee Gardner
