SPIDER'S WEB (1982) colour, 103m.
Directed by Basil Coleman.
This DELIGHTFULLY filmed 1982 BBC television version of the 1954 West End play by Agatha Christie goes completely HAYWIRE.
Caressing all puzzle conventions in rapid speed, bordering on screwball comedy, yet manages to continually challenge my opinion of what should happen next.
Penelope Keith is to the manor married. She has three reliable male friends. There is a nutty female gardener and a married couple as servants.
Murder, fraud, theft and much monkey business occurs.
Available in a R2 (2017) DVD with English subtitles from Dazzler Media.
Had never heard of this before I held it in my hand and promptly bought it.
REALLY SUPERB for golden age detective puzzle aficionados.
