Alias John Preston (1955)

 Psychologist Alexander Knox helps businessman Christopher Lee with troubling dreams that touch on a past he refuses to deal with. Both Knox and Lee are in top form, Betta St. John, who is still with us at 92 plays the love interest. Knox doesn't even show up until about half way through the film, yet I felt his presence dominating Lee's, though Lee again is quite good here. This isn't a long picture, about 70 minutes, but the films first half seems wandering, if "Alias" wasn't in the title you wouldn't know where it was going. **1/2
