Based on a Daphne du Maurier book Alec Guinness really steals this movie. He plays two men who look the same. One is a decent guy and the other is a criminal. The criminal steals the good guy's identity. The good guy is left leading the criminal guy's life except without the crime. He finds that he cares about the people in this criminal's life. However the criminal catches up with him in the end. The movie was ok. Hitchcock who did Maurier's work three times would have made this a better film. I've read Rebecca and Daphne's short stories. So I need to put this on my reading list.
