"The Man With My Husband's Face" was a cleverly constructed thriller. Katrina Grierson is an aspiring novelist who has failed to complete her first novel after ten years. But she is a successful writer of pop-up jingles for a thriving new ap.
Katrina has an uneven marriage with her husband Heath and is even contemplating divorce. Then, Heath suddenly disappears during a kayak outing. When he resurfaces, there is the possibility that it is an imposter with whom Katrina is living under the same roof.
Koko Marshall was terrific in the role of Katrina, who struggles through a Kafkaesque nightmare. There were other well developed characters such as Prisca Geddings, who may hold the key to understanding the truth about Heath. Even the secondary characters were memorable, such as the smooth-talking Georgia country lawyer, Crampton Ligoti. There was lively banter between Katrina and Detective Brand, who slowly came to believe Katrina's outlandish story.
The direction of the film was fast-paced with excellent locations. But it was above all the twists and turns in the narrative that kept the audience guessing right to the end. It was not surprising that the protagonist is contemplating writing a bestseller based on a marriage that became a veritable hurricane for Katrina.
