In this World War II thriller, Maj. Pike (James Garner) awakens in a hospital suffering from amnesia. He's told that D-Day occurred five years ago and is asked pointed questions about the event by his doctor (Rod Taylor). But what Pike doesn't know is that D-Day is in 36 hours, and he's actually in enemy hands. Oscar winner Eva Marie Saint plays Pike's "wife" in this taut drama based on Roald Dahl's short story "Beware of the Dog."
