Format:VHS Tape
Imaginative and well-made speculation as to what may have happened to Agatha Christie during the 10 days in which she disappeared in December 1926. Vanessa Redgrave is not one of my favourite actresses but she is superb here, playing the aristocratic yet very diffident first lady of crime, ill-at-ease with her own success. Timothy Dalton also shows what a diverse actor he is with his role of the starchy Colonel Christie, wanting to divorce Agatha so that he can marry his secretary Nancy Neele. Dustin Hoffman puts in a fun and exuberant turn as the American journalist who tails Agatha to Harrogate. The solution to the mystery is a bit over-the-top, but the actors pull it off with style.

Performance from Hoffman quite outstanding. Redgrave plays it well despite being about half a foot taller than Hoffman. Have recently stayed at the Old Swan Hotel and was quite pleased to see that it has hardly changed from some of the scenes in the film. Seen the film now about four times gets better each time.

Wonderfully clever, and extremely well acted by Dustin Hoffman and Vanessa
Redgrave.
It's the imaginary tale of what happened during a real-life never
explained 11 day disappearance of mystery writer Agatha Christie.
Fun, smart, and quite touching, with gorgeous photography by Vittorio
Stoaro. Hoffman and Redgrave make a wonderful, quirky pair of almost
lovers.
