Dennis Haysbert is widely known as the president on "24" and the man in the Allstate commercials, so it might surprise people to learn that he appeared in this surreal thriller from the early '90s. Scott McGehee's and David Siegel's "Suture" casts Haysbert as the half-brother of a yuppie who tries to kill him, but then the movie takes an even stranger turn.
The black-and-white cinematography gives it the feel of a film noir. Overall, the movie poses the question of identity and how far you can go to be what you're not (kind of like "The Talented Mr. Ripley"). Indeed, throughout the movie I kept wondering it everything on screen was real or just in the protagonist's head. This is one movie that's bound to disturb you. Check it out if you can find a copy.
