Marple: A Murder Is Announced (2005)
Season 1, Episode 4
8/10
A marvel of narrative construction
22 June 2020
So many characters, such an acting ensemble, wonderfully confident, controlled direction. Takes me back to '75 ..Orient Express. I find the complaints of seasoned Christie fans amusing. The text is sacred... Hickson was better...updated for LGBTQ..what happened to Margaret R?...oh please!I

I had to watch a second time to appreciate/comprehend the tidy, absurd, satisfying conclusions. I've watched too much of this genre not to appreciate the inspired, professional acting and production in the service of delighting me. If you're into it, this is an exceptional entry within a genre of quality standards.
