Hi there,

I am pretty sure you are looking for a movie called “Spellbound”. It starred Peck and Ingrid Bergman, and was directed by Alfred Hitchcock. It is best known, though, for a very freaky dream sequence that was art directed by Salvador Dali.

It is a psychological mystery thriller film conducted by Alfred Hitchcock in 1945. It narrates the story of the new head of a mental asylum who turns out not to be what he claims. The picture stars Ingrid Bergman, Gregory Peck, Michael Chekhov and Leo G. Carroll. It is an adaptation by Angus MacPhail and Ben Hecht of the novel The House of Dr. Edwardes (1927) by Hilary Saint George Saunders and John Palmer (writing as "Francis Beeding").
The film opens with Shakespeare's proverb, and words on the screen informing that its purpose is to underscore the virtues of psychoanalysis in banishing mental illness and replacing reason. Dr. Constance Petersen (Ingrid Bergman) is a psychoanalyst at Green Manors, a mental hospital in Vermont, and is perceived via the other (male) nurses as detached and emotionless. The director of the hospital, Dr. Murchison (Leo G. Carroll), is being coerced into retirement, soon afterwards returning from an absence due to nervous exhaustion. His replenishment is the much younger Dr. Anthony Edwardes (Gregory Peck).
