Very engaging movie

Warning: Spoilers
A man killed his father, burned the house and got on a journey. He was accepted by a carnival for kindness. He learned minding reading tricks from an old man and poisoned him to death. He pretended to lovep a young lady and persuaded her to leave the carnival with him to start their own mind reading business. He was lured into the dark side and want the power and money. He had an affair with a mental doctor and colluded to cheat people for money. Their act caused the death of an elderly couple as well as two other men. He was betrayed by the mental doctor and went on homeless life again. In desperate he came back to carnival in hope to get back his old job, but only to find the new owner wanted to be the geek (the beast who eat raw chicken). I think this is a very good screen play and good actors. Even batter than this years Oscar best picture winner.
