Flesh and Fantasy

Flesh and Fantasy is a 1943 American anthology film directed by Julien Duvivier, starring Edward G. Robinson, Charles Boyer and Barbara Stanwyck. The making of this film was inspired by the success of Duvivier's previous anthology film, the 1942 Tales of Manhattan. Flesh and Fantasy tells three stories, unrelated but with a supernatural theme, by Oscar Wilde and László Vadnay, among others. Tying together the three segments is a conversation about the occult between two clubmen, one played by humorist Robert Benchley.
