“Richard Burton is the man with the medusa touch... he has the power to create catastrophe.”

London, 1978. John Morlar (Richard Burton), a novelist, lies in a hospital bed with terrible head injuries, and French detective Brunel (Lino Ventura) is sent to work out who he is. Jack Gold has him piece Morlar's life together from his journals and from sessions with the psychiatrist Doctor Zonfeld (Lee Remick). Over those sessions, Brunel and Zonfeld grow wary of what Morlar's pages say and quietly lean on each other.
