Sudden Fear

Highly regarded theater actor Anthony John has a violent temper, which leads his actress wife, Brita, to leave him. When the two perform together in a production of ``Othello,'' the strain of playing Othello drives John insane, to the point of killing his mistress, Pat Kroll . John does not remember the incident, but is forced to face his actions when promoter Bill Friend uses the murder to publicize the play.
