ā¢ Final acting role of Herbert Lom.
ā¢ Miss Marple is shown reading Raymond Chandler's short story anthology "The Simple Art of Murder", which also contains his titular essay on the detective novel. In the essay, Chandler argues that, in real life, the most unsolvable murders are the simplest, and criticizes, among other writers, Agatha Christie for creating implausible, over-elaborate murder plots for her novels.
ā¢ This episode takes place in December 1915 and 1951.
User reviews
A high quality production.
Not a prudish spinster after all?
Mildly interesting remake with Great Thespians
