The Amazing Mr X (US, 1948)

A noir-ish drama in which a manipulative conman spiritualist preys upon local rich woman including one whose husband is recently deceased. But is he really dead?

It's not a bad, short little noir; picture quality on archive.org isn't the greatest, which is a shame as it's almost entirely filmed by night, at locations near the sea.

Special mention to Lynn Bari as lead female Christine, whose beautiful voice alone is worth watching the movie for.
