The first three quarters of this film were very enjoyable and quite intriguing. Dealing with the idea of sensory deprivation and the effects it can have on the brain it clearly must have had a big influence on the 80's film Altered States.
It was a bit melodramatic at points - especially Bogarde's acting. And the last quarter where his brainwashing is reversed by having to deliver his wife's baby was a bit dull.
