I thought of a film I saw years ago, which I've never been able to remember the name of.
I think it was probably a TV movie rather than a proper movie. May possibly have been a pilot for a TV show which never got made.
All I can remember is.....
The main character had some sort of accident, which gave him super-intelligence whenever he was exposed to sunlight.
My memory of it is vague, so I doubt the "info" above would help much.
EDIT: Hmm, may have been starlight rather than sunlight. I'm sure I remember the finale being in an observatory or something similar.
I remember liking the film when I saw it, but it can't have been that good if I have such little recollection. When you think about it, the premise sounds like a load of crap anyway, so no wonder it didn't get any further than a TV movie / pilot.
