Black and white film; Journalist receives newspapers from a day into the future. One predicts his death [closed] - Numbers Wall Decor

The film is old, maybe the 60's.

The argument is about a frustrated journalist who can not get a good article to the newspaper he works for. After a request for a "miracle", someone comes and gives him (every night) a newspaper with the news of the next day.

One day, the front page news is about his death, I think in a supermarket. In the end, and having avoided his death, he gives up tricking his luck and states that he doesn't want the newspapers any more.
