Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaRichard "Dickie" Attenborough greets the detectives as "Darling." This was a real-life quirk of Attenborough's which he admitted he would often use if he forgot someone's name.
- GoofsAt the end, Inspector Stoppard is awarded the King's Medal for police etc. This movie is set in 1953; while Queen Elizabeth ascended to the throne in February 1952, the name of the King's Medals were not changed to Queen's Medals until May 1954, so it is accurate that the award Stoppard received would be called "King's."
- Quotes

Max Mallowan: And get a shovel to clear the path.
Fellowes: Yes, sir.
Max Mallowan: And do we have enough coal?
Fellowes: Yes, sir. Three bags full, sir.

Featured review
I try to avoid trailers and promos so much so that I thought this was going to be a movie involving trains somehow like a biopic of whoever invented them, all I knew was Saoirse Ronan was in it. She was one of the few upbeat characters in it so she lit up the screen whenever she was on.
It's a movie that talks about itself throughout, it's a whodunnit film and as mentioned in the movie, once you see one you've seen them all. The plot of the movie is the plot of the theatre play and movie, that's inside the movie, so when a clue is revealed in one story you know it's the same for the other.
It's suspenseful throughout but not really engaging enough to keep you on your seat. You're not really invested in any of the characters unless you're already a fan of the actors playing them, which I was. I've seen it compared to "knives out" but I don't think it's that good. Nothing really special about it because it just doesn't click, feels like it's supposed to though. There's a lot of funny bits that carry the film, but those feel like an accessory, not actually what the movie is supposed to be about, just something to elevate it. It's meant to be a mystery but the mystery doesn't do much.
It's made to be pretty simple and quirky, I think it would've been better if it took itself a little more seriously and maybe slowed down a bit. Funny and 1950's retro so there's things to love about it, but confused about what's it's meant to be so it feels all over the place.
