Black Widow
Thriller about a beautiful and glamorous woman who makes her living by marrying rich men and then discreetly murdering them. This comes to the attention of a dowdy Justice Department agent who decides to track her down. This move is inspired by jealousy as much as a sense of justice, especially as both women go for the same man.
