Manhandled (1949)

In the shadowy world of psychiatry and private investigation, Merle Kramer serves as a stenographer, transcribing the deepest secrets of the human mind. She's entangled in a casual liaison with Karl Benson, an ex-cop turned private eye, a man who knows how to navigate the city's underbelly. When Merle casually shares a tale of a novelist patient, haunted by recurring dreams of murdering his gem-laden wife, the story takes a chilling turn. Soon, the wife is discovered dead, the chilling echo of her husband's nightmares bringing him under the glaring spotlight of suspicion. As the police and tireless insurance investigator Joe Cooper delve into the enigma, it becomes clear that beneath the surface, everyone involved, including Merle, is wearing a disguise of deception. Peeling back layer upon layer of intrigue, "Manhandled" spins a web of mystery that will keep you guessing, as recurring nightmares become terrifying reality, and those who appear innocent may be entwined in a plot more sinister than any author could dream up.
