Crack in the Mirror is a 1960 drama film directed by Richard Fleischer. The three principal actors, Orson Welles, Juliette Gréco, and Bradford Dillman, play dual roles in two interconnected stories as the participants in two love triangles.
The script was credited to by producer Darryl F. Zanuck (under his frequent pseudonym "Mark Canfield"), but in his 1993 autobiography Just Tell Me When to Cry, Fleischer revealed that it was ghostwritten by the blacklisted Jules Dassin.
In an interview with American Legends website, the late Bradford Dillman revealed that on the set Orson Welles could be "hell on wheels" and that director Fleischer "didn't fool around with Orson. Nobody fooled around with Orson. He did his own thing."
