Seconds - (Frankenheimer;1966;USA) - ****
An aging man is approached by a secret company and blackmailed to fake his death and undergo a surgery to become a younger man to find happiness, however his new life brings new problems.
Frankenheimer's best film. The music is excellent and eerie along with many of the wide-angle lens shots used throughout. The middle drags a little at times, but it is made up for by a great ending. Both Rock Hudson and John Randolph are great in their acting. A truly disturbing film, with a painfully beautiful final image. I appreciated it more with this second or third viewing.
