Crack-Up (1946)


RKO Radio Pictures
Directed by Irving Reis
My rating: 3 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Turner Classic Movies)

Pat O'Brien is a friendly museum lecturer. One night he is abducted on a train and drugged, although he thinks he was in a crash. His attempt to solve the mystery leads him into a gang of art thieves. This Hitchcockian thriller has plenty of plot twists and turns, although O'Brien is not the most dynamic leading man. Claire Trevor is the romantic interest and Herbert Marshall a British detective after the missing paintings.
