From Dumas was the first novel that l'd read on my teenage years, Monte Cristo, after that thrilling experience l become an eager for Duma's work, in this forgotten picture from the master of the French literature gave us another gem, Orson Welles as always did a great acting as Cagliostro, a dark gypsy character, who discover thru Mesmer that has a magnetic eyes, let an old man fully hypnotized and suggesting to his mind to believe that is no longer is ill, having in mind such power he decides follow his own evil instinct to climb toward the powerful rich's circle of the European society, reaching there quickly, a story of the guy from lowest social class into the most prominent "Doctor" who has an unusual psychic power over all people around, this picture had a remake in 2001 as "The Affair of the Necklace", we must recognized to DVD's era this lost gem, without the tool's restoration available and a strong market place to drain those amazing pictures that turned back to my generation!!!
