Mister Buddwing is a 1966 American film about a well-dressed man (James Garner) who finds himself on a bench in Central Park with no idea of who he is. He proceeds to wander around Manhattan meeting women (Jean Simmons, Suzanne Pleshette, Katharine Ross, Angela Lansbury) as he desperately tries to figure out his own identity. Based on the 1964 novel Buddwing by Evan Hunter, the evocatively shot black-and-white drama with a lively jazz musical score was written by Hunter and Dale Wasserman, and directed by Delbert Mann. The film was nominated for two Academy Awards; for Best Costume Design (Helen Rose) and Best Art Direction (George Davis, Paul Groesse, Henry Grace, Hugh Hunt).
