A Kiss Before Dying (1956)
Bud Corliss is een sombere student die zo wordt geobsedeerd door rijkdom, dat hij alles aangrijpt om dit te bemachtigen. Wanneer zijn rijke vriendinnetje Dorothy zwanger raakt en dreigt te worden onterfd, zet Bud haar zelfmoord in scene, door haar over de rand van een wolkenkrabber te duwen. Het is de perfecte misdaad, totdat Ellen, de zus van Dorothy, de dodelijke plannen van Bud begint te ontrafelen.
