Michael Sarrazin is having bad dreams, only they are not dreams but memories of his past life. He catches a glimpse of some of the places in his dreams on television and travels there with his girlfriend. He finds his ex wife and daughter 35 years older than when he dreamed about them. He falls in love with his daughter, but his wife realizes who he really is and is not happy to see him. I thought the first part was rather slow, and his blond girlfriend annoying. However, as soon as she left him in Massachusetts the film took on a new life. The pacing was very good from that point and the story very involving. The electronic soundtrack by Jerry Goldsmith further enhances the atmosphere. A near-classic of 70s occult cinema.
