Murder Is Easy - 2023 - 6/10
Village resident, Miss Pinkerton, is heading for Scotland Yard with her suspicions.
Two have already died in mysterious circumstances, and she suspects a third.
On the train journey, she shares her thoughts with young Fitzwilliam, from Nigeria.
Then, in London, she is murdered, struck down by a hit-n-run driver.
Whereupon Fitz, an attaché to Whitehall, decides to head to her village and begin investigating.
Adapted from an Agatha Christie novel, this may tempt her fans, yet there are problems.
Directorial choices are poor. Excessive close-ups ruin the flow.
The actors have no chemistry. Rather than engage, they shift around, waiting to say lines.
The script, for those who have read the book, is a jaw-dropping fantasy.
