Liam Neeson starts as Dr. Martin Harris in Unknown

Dark Castle Holdings / Warner Bros. Pictures

You're Dr. Martin Harris, a botany professor at an American university, and you've come with your wife Liz to Berlin for a biotechnology conference. As she checks into the hotel, you realize you left your briefcase at the airport and hail a taxi, telling the blonde driver to step on it. An accident sends the cab careering off a bridge and into a river, from which the driver pulls you out before vanishing. A few days later you awake from a coma and bolt from the hospital to join Liz at the conference. Funny — she doesn't seem to recognize you. And the man standing next to her, she says, is Dr. Martin Harris.
