The story is about the relationship between the psychoanalyst Dr. Phil, played by Bergman, and Brown, a guilt-ridden psychopath, played by Parker. Brown accidentally collided with his brother when he was playing, causing his brother to die unexpectedly. And there is a strong sense of guilt, this sense of guilt develops to the point of being uncontrollable, even losing the mind, so painful that it even automatically loses memory to escape this. Even so, whenever Brown saw something like black lines on a white background, he developed intense anxiety and even fainted. Brown suffered from a mental illness and was treated by a psychiatrist, Dr. Ward. In order to treat Brown's illness, Dr. Ward took Brown to skiing. During this skiing, Dr. Ward died unexpectedly (it turned out to be a shooting death). At this time, Brown thought that he had killed Dr. Ward, delusional that he was Dr. Ward and not dead, so he disguised himself as Dr. Ward and went to Dr. Fei's hospital to take over the post of director. And developed into a lover with Dr. Fei, with the arrival of Dr. Ward's secretary, Brown's identity was exposed. Since Dr. Ward died skiing with Brown, Brown has schizophrenia and has become a suspect in police pursuit. The exposure of his identity allowed Brown to start his escape. Dr. Fei was deeply attracted to Brown and wanted to follow him to help him cure her mental illness. This film reminds me of Bell once helped a father who was in deep self-blame because his child drowned unexpectedly in Survival in the Wild, and he fell into deep self-blame for not being able to rescue the child. Since the child drowned, the father saw water You will be very nervous, and you will fall into a deep sense of guilt. Because in this father's heart, it was he who killed the child, not an accident.
