An original and well acted Noir suspense anthology of dreams and the supernatural. Three strange stories introduced by two men, (Benchley & Hoffman), at their club. An ugly spinster, (Field), is given a pretty face mask on Mardi Gras night that eventually makes her beautiful. An attorney, (Edward G. Robinson), who scoffs at fortune telling submits to his palm being read by a palmist, (Mitchell), who tells him that he will kill before the night is out. A high wire circus performer, (Boyer), continually dreams he will be in an accident while performing and that it is connected in some way with a woman, (Barbara Stanwyck). He meets her on a voyage to the next circus engagement.
