Supernatural (1933) Phony psychic tries to scam heiress Carole Lombard, but she becomes possessed by the vengeful spirit of his ex-girlfriend, a recently executed Mad Strangler. Really skewed concept, well presented. I like Lombard in the '30s and this is a uniquely weird film. 8/10

For the Love of Mary (1948) Deanna Durbin is a switchboard operator at the White House who is so incredibly appealing that Supreme Court justices and the President himself intervene in her love life. It's amazing what a complicated comedy of errors it becomes. She sings a bit too. Nothing explodes, nobody shoots at anyone or crashes through a window, no huge things come rushing at you. It's just funny and nice. Edmond O'Brien is one of the handsome young suitors. 7/10
