"I am glad that I decided to watch this dramatic movie. Although the acting is very subdued, the plot has a slow building suspense as we, the viewer, figure out the true story. A homeless man, played by Kent Smith, who bears a striking resemblance to Malcolm, the missing wealthy businessman and partner to a shady lawyer, played by Robert Douglas, is paid to replace the man in his home. The goal is to find out who really stands to win the inheritance of three million dollars. The longer we see David Cummins, the false Malcolm convince the family that he has returned hime, the more pieces 🧩 of the puzzle come together to an exciting conclusion. What really happened to the missing man? You will find out if you watch this movie. "
