A familiar-feeling but interesting slice of human psyche, DUAL ALIBI is a circus-set psychological drama about a pair of twin brothers who end up falling for the same girl and getting scammed out of a lottery ticket at the same time. Although the conclusion is somewhat inevitable, the journey there generally works thanks to the excellent casting of Herbert Lom in the central role(s), alongside plenty of surprisingly decent split screen work to produce the duplicate effect. Lom plays a pair of feuding trapeze artist twins who end up having the traditional fight scene and arguments, while the mistaken identity twist at the end is pretty obvious by now, but it's all handled well in a darkly mature way.
