The Man Upstairs – Richard Attenborough DVD

$13.75

Peter Watson (Richard Attenborough) lives in a dingy London boarding house, plagued by guilt and slowly losing his mind. His anguished state was caused by a terrible accident that occurred while Watson was working as a scientist, an accident that resulted in the death of his fiancé’s brother. Unable to escape his depression, Watson’s condition worsens. After causing a disturbance one night, a fellow tenant calls the police on him, which further unbalances his already precarious mental state.

Description

John Wilson is troubled with pain and and an inability to sleep. He tries to light the gas-fire and seeks help from another lodger, artist Nicholas, who is spending the night with his model, and is reluctant to be disturbed. Another neighbor, Pollen, tries to be helpful, but is hit by Wilson. Frightened and angry, Pollen calls for police help. The others in the boarding house are awakened by this time, and Mrs. Harris tries to help the mentally confused Wilson, but he also refuses her help. The police clash with Dr. Sanderson, a welfare worker, who thinks he can take the gun-toting Wilson without complications, but when a Police Sergeant is injured, Police Inspector Thompson is determined to take Wilson by force if necessary.
