Kevin Sanchez2025 gave us a true piece of work with this one. The music adds another dimension to the experience. Highly recommended.CinemaSerfWith no absence of suspects or motive, the policeman naturally alights on the handsome nevertheless poverty stricken young stranger who hopes to marry into into the family. Surely it cannot be him? Although this does have it’s moments, it reminded me too much of Dawn French’s far superior “Murder Most Horrid” (1991) with some additional bits from "Downton Abbey” and a “Knives Out” mystery thrown in for good measure.Amanda WilliamsOn that note, some actors deliver, others feel miscast.
