About The Mystic
Zara, a phony psychic in a Hungarian carnival who, under the guidance of a Svengali-like con man crashes—and proceeds to swindle—American high society.
Directed by Tod Browning, The Mystic leans on a strong ensemble — Aileen Pringle, Conway Tearle, Mitchell Lewis — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1925.
