Richard Easton

In the dreamy city of Bruges, a man lives in his past, mourning his dead wife. He meets her double in the street which plunges him into a nightmare. A simple story in a complex package. Doubles abound. The ghosts of Ensor, Poe, and Hesse haunt this tale.

Mike Church (Branagh) is a L.A. gumshoe with a knack for tossing off wisecracks and tracking down missing persons. But Church doesn't have a clue when he's hired to help a beautiful amnesia victim (Thompson) tormented by blood-curdling nightmares. Then an eccentric antiques dealer and hypnotist (Derek Jacobi) leads Church to a startling discovery.
