L’uomo ombra (1934) in streaming su altadefinizione Dopo quattro anni di assenza, l'ex detective Nick Charles torna a New York con la sua nuova moglie Nora e il loro cane, Asta. Nick si riconnette con molti dei suoi vecchi amici, molti dei quali sono personaggi eccentrici, per non dire altro. Viene anche avvicinato da Dorothy Wynant il cui padre inventore Clyde Wynant è sospettato di aver ucciso l'amante di suo padre (la sua ex segretaria). Suo padre era partito per un viaggio programmato alcuni mesi prima e lei non ha avuto contatti con lui. Nick non è così entusiasta di riprendere la sua precedente professione, ma spinto dalla moglie Nora, che pensa che tutto questo sia molto eccitante, accetta di dare una mano. Risolve il caso, annunciando l'identità dell'assassino a una cena per tutti i sospettati.
