Director: Guy Hamilton
Overview
When a Hollywood movie company arrives, stars in tow, to make a picture, the village of St Mary Mead is delighted. However, a local woman is murdered, with the poison seemingly intended for a visiting movie star. Local detective Inspector Craddock (Edward Fox) turns to his Auntie, Miss Jane Marple (Angela Lansbury), a famous sleuth, for help.
With an A-List Hollywood cast, including Rock Hudson, Kim Novak, Elizabeth Taylor, Tony Curtis, and Geraldine Chaplin, as well as the talents of Angela Lansbury and Edward Fox, The Mirror Crack'd has undeniably potent star power. Adapted from one of Agatha Christie's best-loved Miss Marple novels, the film is packed with twists, turns, and one of Christie's signature reveals.
