THE BEST MYSTERY MOVIE EVER MADE, 26 August 2004
10/10
Author: siralewker (siralewker@aol.com) from monsey, ny usa

I sell old mysteries & attempt to read every book I sell. I love mysteries & have read and seen the best & the worst. Sydney Greenstreet & Peter Lorre partner again to make this wonderful, grainy black & white cinema classic. The grainy quality & black & white film only add to the quality of this film. This IS NOT the movie THE VERDICT, made by Paul Newman.It is based on the turn of the last century novella by Israel Zangwill, THE BIG BOW MYSTERY. The film is much better than the novella. It is a pure, classic whodunnit, which is solved at the very end....most dramatically. I keep seeking copies to give as gifts in regular VHS. PAL or (dare I dream)DVD. Turner Movies owns the right & used to broadcast this film regularly on TBS or TNT. I have not seen it on TV for the last 5 years. If you enjoy old or new mysteries, I would love to hear opinions if you have been fortunate enough to have seen this film. Sincerely, Hil SIRALEWKER@AOL.COM
