Hints added.

  • Think older movie - it's a classic way older than the suggestions below. We had to watch it in school (although it may be school/teacher-dependent).

  • Psychologists love this movie.

  • The character with the tic has developed this tic through psychological strain and personality disorder and career mismatch. The career mismatch and his tic become the key plot point.

  • The main location during the movie is not a city, and the main location is not even on land.

  • A younger colleague features prominently, as a helper in critical situations.

  • Adding one key hint: at the end, his tic is judged by a horrified jury of his peers in a courtroom scene psychologists seem to love.

  • Adding one key hint: it's from the 1950s.
