故事轮廓
The main character is Dr. Max Holst, a successful neurosurgeon. One day an intense little man named Steinmetz shows up, who has the real ability to create objects out of thin air, using only his mind. As no one believes him at first, he is held at a ward for mental patients, but manifests the key to his door and escapes. As he has a special interest in Dr. Holst, Steinmetz subsequently invites Holst to his large mansion, which is full of expensive paintings and sculptures, and proves to him that he can in fact materialise objects. Steinmetz’s abilities are evolving by leaps and bounds, and is progressing from being able to create objects only to being able to create living things. His ultimate ambition is to be able to create a human being. He tells Dr. Holst that if he will only perform a certain brain operation on him, Steinmetz will become able to attain his goal. He’s got all the necessary equipment set up in his basement. Dr. Holst, however, is too spooked by the whole thing to agree to this mad scheme, and refuses. Steinmetz then sets about manipulating Holst’s life, to pressure him into performing the operation. By then Steinmetz has become able to create a temporary human being, and in the hope that he can perhaps make his own creation perform the operation, he manifests a doppelganger of Dr. Holst. This double proceeds to take over Dr. Holst’s life, creating chaos for him professionally and personally. And then Dr. Holst starts fighting back. The ending has the dual virtue of being both unexpected and satisfying.

逻辑在意志强烈的结尾作用下变得很微妙，技法上有点无聊
The Case of Mr. Pelham变体，构图和摄影好评
资料馆｜好高钙……
2026年丹麦文化中心一天之内连续看的第三个黑白电影，但不再是默片了，而是超级精彩的科幻惊悚片，像希区柯克版的《2001太空漫游》加《怪医黑杰克》，但怪的不是医生，也不傲游太空，而是“思考人生的男人”钻研大脑与精神的可能性成了怪人。看之前刚快速读了本《时间与他者》，恰好这个电影与他者和存在主义也有着密切关联。一群人聚在一起看黑白片放映很有90年代的感觉，但又要庆幸不是90年代看的，小时候的逻辑思维和专注度大概率看不懂怎么回事。
比2001晚一年，但明显可见前者对该片影响之大，“本我”与“超我”的博弈，摄影与构图迷人...
