(crime, drama, mystery)
Miss Marple is invited to London to see her old friend Ruth. Miss Marple was a sort of traveling companion to Ruth and her sister, Carrie Louise. Ruth is worried about Carrie Louise. She doesn't know why, though. Ruth asks Miss Marple to come with her to her sister's estate, Stonygates. Stonygates is a huge manor house, and some of the buildings and the grounds are used by Carrie Louises' current husband, Lewis, as a reformatory for juvenile criminals. Miss Marple meets the people who live there - Carrie Louise's grand-daughter Gina and her malcontent American husband Walter; Stephen and Alex Restarick, Carrie Louise's stepsons by her first marriage; Edgar Lawson, Lewis' mentally unstable secretary; and Carrie Louise's daughter, Mildred, who is jealous of Gina. Soon, Carrie Louise's stepson by her second marriage shows up. He is Christian Guldbrandsen, and he runs the trust which contributes a fraction of the funds used to run Stonygates. He and Lewis talk in private. Later that night, Edgar begins waving a gun around and ranting that Lewis is his father. Lewis takes him to his office where the argument becomes even more heated. After a few minutes, two shots are heard, and then hysterical crying. The door opens to reveal Lewis, unhurt. Edgar missed him. However, the body of Christian Guldbrandsen is discovered, shot. Miss Marple sets out to find the murderer before it is too late for her good friend Carrie Louise.

Saboteurs on it.

Dame Agatha must rotate and turn. She spends his conclusion that energy
thin
disclose between the rim and confusion to tantalize us in a game. It is among the most

trick participate in all literature. But

comes along the heavy boot of TeeVee that (apparently) requires

people do not want to think, therefore abandon all tracks and games. From Bowen
other adaptations generally plod
and we are surprised at all at the end. We are not detectives, but among
disconcerted to people
the parlor explanations which are late.

But this is the worst. Christie often gives clues indirect fixing of a
theme here is
illusion, the illusion of magic, theatre, film, ballet. The
saves all this, but what makes
Blunt. Saving some of the events red herring, but not ripen any of them
: What was the
`student 'Sneaking do?

Why siblings seriously pursue a married woman? Of all the Hickson
Marples,
this is the greatest distance between the coherence of the book and the incoherence of

adaptation.

Ted's evaluation - 1 of 3: You can find something better to do with this
part of his life.
The novel on which this adaptation is not basa was one of Christie's best works
to begin. But the way the (first)
the murder was carried out in the book was brilliant. In this adaptation
the exact details of the crime are shelved, the plan of the house appears briefly in the first part
no-show again to explain how the murderer
came to the victim's room, nor the sound of running steps
heard by Alex Restarick developed in this regard. Without these explanations I fear
the casual viewer may have some unanswered questions at the end of the film
.

The film, however, have their saving grace - in the casting
Department. Faith Brook and Jean Simmons in particular shine in their respective roles
Ruth van Rydock and Carrie-Louise Serrocold.
The two sisters' friendship with Jane Marple is best viewed in place
play the final sequence.
