Alfred Hitchcock: Premonition (1955) (TV)

Synopsis: A man returns home after a long absence, and finds that his father has died in mysterious circumstances.

Appraisal (mild spoiler): One of the several examples of how cinema and television have built a mythology of mental disorders according to simplistic notions with no empiric validation. Strictly as melodrama, it's not completely worthless.
