The Late Edwina Black (1951). It is known also as: The Obsessed (1951).
It is Geraldine Fitzgerald as companion to an ill, nasty and evil woman who is murdered. She and the woman's husband are in love and have been waiting for her to die.
Jean Cadell is a sort of low-rent version of Mrs. Danvers.
One might think that Roland Culver as the Scotland Yard Inspector is channeling Columbo if it were not for the date of production.
This is a nice little murder mystery. I found a few scenes were more melodramatic than they needed to be and there is a bit of flouncing but it is over-all very well-acted.
The ending was within the framework of what I suspected but certain details were not available until the denouement.
