A mystery concerning a case of amnesia tops the DVD releases for the week of July 15.

"The Actor": Set sometime in post-WWII America, André Holland stars as Paul, a thespian who awakens in a small-town hospital with no memory of how he got there, in filmmaker Duke Johnson's adaptation of the posthumous Donald E. Westlake novel.

"Technically, the story is a mystery-thriller," writes Los Angeles Times film critic Amy Nicholson in her review. "But really, the core struggle is Paul's inner conflict. He can't decide whether he should stay put in the embrace of a charming local kook, Edna (Gemma Chan), or head back to the city where he suspects he enjoyed a more glamorous life."
