Plot

When a famous doctor kills his adulterous wife, he is defended by his best friend, an attorney who suspects that his own wife is having an affair.

Sinekatalog’s take

James Whale's drama follows a lawyer defending a man who killed his wife, which haunts his own marriage. Frank Morgan and Nancy Carroll star in a stylish, compact and elegantly shot melodrama with Whale's touch.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
