The Mind Of Mr Soames (5)

1969, Amicus Productions. Directed by Alan Cooke. Stars Terence Stamp, Robert Vaughn and Nigel Davenport.

A 30-year-old man, who has been in a coma since birth, is finally restored to consciousness by a breakthrough brain operation. Although physically an adult, the man is effectively a blank slate, having the mind and world view of an infant; and the doctors caring for him must teach him to walk, talk, socialise and prepare for life in the outside world, without any time for the traditional niceties and slow tenderness of a normal childhood.

Why is there no DVD release of this film, after all this time? It would mean that people like me could make the studio some money with a legitimate purchase. Until then, this will have to do.

This is another portion of the film. More will follow if there is interest.
