9/10
Ingenious, Hitchcockian short
12 October 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Wonderful short suspense piece that will keep you guessing until the last 5 minutes when the aforementioned card -- which the stranger did NOT leave -- is at last turned over, and the big surprise revealed.

The movie boasts good direction, a clever script, and high production values. Another plus: Fine acting by the lead, whose eccentric character's real agenda is kept hidden for the first several minutes as he methodically courts the amusement and ultimately the trust of the townsfolk. But things are not as they appear.

I had a chance to watch this movie on YouTube, and, if it is still available there, it is well worth your time.
