Before today I only knew of Douglas Trumbull‘s Brainstorm (’83), the Natalie Wood-Chris Walken drama that was delayed due to Wood’s 1981 drowning death. It costarred Louise Fletcher and Cliff Robertson.
And then I suddenly learned, hours ago, of William Conrad‘s Brainstorm (’65), a bizarre neo-noir that costarred Jeffrey Hunter (behaving like a total glazed-eyed nutter), Anne Francis, Dana Andrews and Viveca Lindfors. It looks and sounds awful, but is streaming on Criterion as we speak. Has anyone in the HE community ever seen it? I’m thinking of submitting this weekend.
