Still moving on with my Agatha Christie's adaptations marathon... This one was brilliant! The cast is full of big Hollywood names such as Rock Hudson, Tony Curtis, Kim Novak, Geraldine Chaplin and of course the leading role for Liz Taylor who does an incredible interpretation. And then an unusual but tremendously funny Miss Marple played by Angela Lansbury saying things like: "Gossip? I prefer to call it a healthy interest in human nature."
It's an ok movie. I love Angela Lanbury but she's not really how I would picture Miss Marple. Altogether not to bad a movie though.

For someone who hasn't seen Margaret Rutherfords performances in those Marple films, I could see this as being an entertaining story, but for everyone else, this was just lazy, inconsistent, and for the most, a waste of time. Shame really. Stick with those Rutherford films, that's where the real charm of the character and story play out properly.
