La Passion du docteur Hohner (1944)
Le docteur Fridriech Hohner est le médecin attitré du Royal Theater. Sa fiancée, une célèbre cantatrice, Marcellina, refuse de renoncer à sa carrière pour ses beaux yeux. Il l'étrangle. Dix ans plus tard, alors que son crime est resté impuni, Hohner entend une jeune chanteuse, Angela Klatt, exécuter les trilles de «The Magic Voice», l'opéra sur lequel travaillait Marcellina quand le médecin fou de jalousie l'a privée de sa voix et de sa vie en même temps. Il tombe instantanément sous le charme. Angela est embauchée. Sa première prestation rencontre un succès monumental. Jaloux, Hohner l'hypnotise et parvient à l'empêcher de chanter...
