After taking off some time to do a comedy, MR. AND MRS. SMITH, for Alfred Hitchcock, Montgomery returns to the maniac role he played in NIGHT MUST FALL. This time, he's the scion of a huge British fortune but he's been confined to a mental hospital in France because his mind is bent to the
point of snapping. His mother, Watson, doesn't know that he was incarcerated, and when he escapes from the hospital and returns to England, he doesn't tell her. (Montgomery's attempts at a British accent are negligible and only bottomed by Robert Redford's complete disregard of the British
ancestry of the character he played in 1985's OUT OF AFRICA.) Bergman is working for Watson...
