Doctor Crippen(1942)

Doctor Crippen is a crime drama centred on the notorious true case of a mild-mannered physician and his missing wife. When trapeze artist Cora vanishes from their London home after a dinner party, her husband Dr. Frank Crippen claims she has fled to Brazil. A suspicious friend alerts the authorities, and police excavations of the garden unearth a horrifying discovery: human remains. As Inspector Düwell pieces together the evidence, Crippen flees, becoming one of history's most hunted fugitives. The film traces the investigation into one of Edwardian England's most sensational murder cases, blending period detail with the psychological tension of a manhunt that gripped the nation.
