I've become more of a fan of head injury movies in recent years after cracking my head a couple of times while riding my bike. It can be quite disturbing to have memory loss no matter how small of a chunk the loss of memory is. After one incident which put me in hospital for the night it took a few months before the periodic head spins went away.
Fortunately during my recovery period I was not accused of murder, although my memory was solid enough that I am certain I would have remembered such an act.
Nevertheless I could empathize with the plight of John Mills in The October Man. His confused, worried and troubled expressions are quite convincing as he wonders if he is a homicidal maniac. Luckily he has a supportive woman (there is always a supportive woman in a Hollywood film, even when the movie isn't made in Hollywood) in Joan Greenwood. I'd run around in the fog and knock my head a hundred times if I could marry Joan.
