Talk about an identity crisis . . .

A man is discovered in the snow at the foot of the Pyrenees Mountains (above) with a briefcase full of money and a scallop shell medallion, He says he has amnesia, and has no idea who he is. But he tells the young woman charged with helping him and with whom he quickly becomes involved, he's OK being unburdened by identity. Really.

Here's why: A woman claiming to be his wife shows up from Edinburgh and says he's faking. This buzzkill explains that, bored with his life, he had an affair with a stripper, faked his death and fled on a motorcycle to reinvent himself on a tour of Europe with some Norwegian Hells Angels.

Did we mention this is a play, "Pyrenees," at the Kirk Douglas Theatre in Culver City.
