Svengali (1931)
Svengali è un inquietante maestro di musica, capace di controllare le azioni delle sue allieve attraverso ipnosi e telepatia. Quando incontra la meravigliosa modella Trilby, che trasforma in una grande cantante, finisce per innamorarsi di lei, che però è innamorata del giovane pittore Billee. Trilby riuscirà a liberarsi dall'incubo in cui è piombata solo con la morte del suo pigmalione.
