Identity is a 2003 movie, directed by James Mangold and written by Michael Cooney. The film stars John Cusack, Ray Liotta and Amanda Peet. The film tells two stories. Ten strangers, after a series of accidents, find themselves stranded at the same motel during a rainstorm, where they start suffering increasingly horrible deaths. Elsewhere, at an emergency midnight meeting, a doctor attempts to convince a judge that a serial killer about to go to his death is, in fact, insane and cannot be held accountable for his actions. The convergence of these two stories marks an unusual plot twist. The film itself didn't perform very well upon its release, but was reasonably well received in the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. The film was nominated for a Teen Choice Award in 2003. |
