Prim Suspect



Though her love is exceedingly strange
Seems this husband is needing a change
Their "affair" is platonic
So it's fairly ironic
Wife-murder he speeds to arrange.

Edwardian noir? Why not. Henpecked by his wife, bank teller Charles Laughton falls in love with Ella Raines in The Suspect (Robert Siodmak, 1944). Like he needed an excuse to fall for Ella Raines.
