Seconds is a 1966 American neo-noir science-fiction psychological horror film directed by John Frankenheimer and starring Rock Hudson, Salome Jens, and Will Geer. The screenplay by Lewis John Carlino is based on the 1963 novel by David Ely. Set in New York City and Malibu, California, the film tells the story of a middle-aged New York banker who, disillusioned with his life, is contacted by an agency known as "The Company" which specializes in providing "rebirths" under new identities and appearances altered by plastic surgery. The film premiered at the 1966 Cannes Film Festival, where it was nominated for the Palme d'Or. It was released in the United States by Paramount Pictures on 5 October 1966. Though it was a financial disappointment, it received positive reviews and has since developed a cult following.
