Diabolique
“Two women. One man. The combination can be murder.”
The wife and mistress of a cruel school master collaborate in a carefully planned and executed scheme to murder him. The plan goes well until the body, which has been strategically dumped, disappears. The psychological strain starts to weigh on the two women when a retired police investigator begins looking into the man's disappearance on a whim.

Source: TMDB. Domestic/international split (~47/53, genre-typical) and the opening-weekend figure (35% of the domestic run, typical for Mystery) are MoviesRankd estimates. Profit is gross revenue minus production budget and excludes marketing — studios typically need ~2–2.5× budget to break even.
