Kino Lorber Studio Classics releases on both 4K UHD and Blu-ray this adaptation of the Agatha Christie novel featuring her character Jane Marple (played here by Angela Lansbury) inhabitant of an English village in 1953 which is being used by a film crew (comprised of actors Elizabeth Taylor, Rock Hudson, Tony Curtis, and Kim Novack) who become involved in a mysterious murder that may have a tragic connection to one of them... Edward Fox plays her nephew and Scotland Yard detective investigating the case. Directed by Guy Hamilton. Looking superb in HD (I am presently unable to view the UHD), an upgrade over the 2001 Anchor Bay DVD, porting over those extras but now including an audio commentary by Howard S. Berger, Steve Mitchell, and Nathanial Thompson. Miss Jane Marple had been played previously four times in the 1960's by Margaret Rutherford (Available on DVD in a box set, but not Blu-ray yet...) in a series of films that were not faithful adaptations really, but still fun, and makes better viewing than this rather tepid, mediocre film, which proved to be Lansbury's only performance as the character. Not the worst way to spend 105 minutes though.

Ah, a little hokey but quite enjoyable. The Mirror Crack'd has a cast of people who were superstars of their day. I'm also certain I caught a glimpse of Pierce Brosnan in a bit part that might have been his big break. Angela Lansbury delights as Miss Marple (This movie must have been the inspiration for her series.). Elizabeth Taylor has a quirky part to play but does a great job of it. And Kim Novak convincingly played an actress who wasn't Kim Novak. The story moves along at a nice clip. I liked best the richly detailed plot replete with an impressive ensemble performance and movement back and forth between the main story and episodes from other plays and films. It's all made clear at the end with an additional plot twist. Great flick.

For the most part, I really enjoyed this movie. That being said, there were things that could have made it better. Casting Liz Taylor in the role (loosely based on the Gene Tierney story) was a mistake. She just didn't seem believable as the supposedly fragile, fading film star, trying to make a comeback. Liz seemed too powerful, in control (up to the end) and angry...the weeping and come hither looks directed at Rock Hudson, fell well short of the mark. I did enjoy her sniping with Kim Novak, but again, it didn't fit with the role she was supposedly playing overall. I love Angela Lansbury but in this film, she was not at her best. Seemed to be just reading her lines and portraying the role of Miss Marple in an almost "campy" way. That detracted from her performance throughout this movie. I still enjoyed the story and I'm glad I watched it. Good but could have been better.

In the Agatha Christie books, Jane Marple, the elderly spinster detective is always portrayed as healthy for her age, but by no means hearty. Angela Lansbury is a fabulous actress, but she wasn't old enough at the time this movie was made, to look quite like Jane Marple's health level. Still, she is a fabulous actress and plays the part well.

I once studied American English and British English comparatively through this piece of work. It was aolso interesting movie. You sent me a copy without Japanese regional code. So I can't view it. Your job is so lousy that you didn't even confirm my appropriate regional code. It should be quite clear that I placed my order from Japan, and I think it is quite strange that you didn't even confirm the address you were shipping to. You only thought about getting money from me. Very mean attitude. I once ordered a DVD from Standford, but they were careful about shipping the DVD to Japan, and sent one with Japanese regional code. So Please do not be a fool. Have common sense!

I always want to see any production of Agatha Christie, and usually enjoy it overall. Her stories are that good. To me, the classic interpretation so far is the BBC television series with Joan Hickson as Ms. Marple and David Suchet as Poirot. They were so authentic and true to the books, while being very well done. The 80's and 90's seemed to yield the best of the crop. But, I even enjoy Margaret Rutherford's series, though they are so loosely adapted. This decade's offerings give the heartburn, even the newer ones with Suchet. They have taken the stories much farther afield than I can swallow, stellar production and casting notwithstanding. But here's Rock and Liz together again - in Agatha Christie. This is one of the more glamorous of the Marple stories, and there is plenty of glamour here. My goodness, the superbly correct butler was the wonderful Charles Gray. All these people together - Kim Novak, in an over-the-top Lola Brewster. Everyone loves the vitriolic exchanges between the two actresses in the story, which is why they indulged in so much license with that aspect. Edward Fox is interesting in his reaction to Marina (Lizzie) in the interview, calling her on pulling out a scene from one of her movies when his questioning got too close. Then, she immediately switches back to near serendipity. Tony Curtis as the producer follows the more outrageous type. This really was quite a mix of British and American actors. It was interesting seeing a number of the local characters showing up later in the BBC series in different roles. Miss Marple (Angela Lansbury here) seems to be the hardest to define. She is varied from the first book treatment, and some in the BBC series as well. It seems hard to land on a persona for her. She is an atypical old lady, with her perky persistence when she's really onto something. Unfortunately, most have taken that aspect and run with it, ignoring her foundational substance. The newer ones especially seem to make her out to be a liberated know-it-all. With that, she has become a very vapid, shallow character. In this version, there's a cigarette smoking (or attempt), which comes across quite strangely - a bit of a caricature really. They have her starting out as the know-it-all at the local movie night, but she becomes more biddable as it goes along. She demonstrates the life experience correlations, which are so pivotal in her sound assessments. Aside: Note the stark contrast in the size of the rather diminutive figure of Edward Fox next to the full sized Lansbury and Hudson. With Lansbury, in particular -- she literally looms over him, adding another incongruous dimension to the depiction here. Geraldine Chaplin is the secretary, holding herself very tightly, with all sorts of complications going on beneath her surface. The Heather Babcock character was effective, that being an important one. They really had the vicar fuddled up in this. And the location and sets - quite wonderful, as are other versions. There's a lot of the old world charm still intact in the British isles. They cleverly carried out the story with overall accuracy, adding and subtracting with an eye to please modern viewers and the run time of the film. I can note the variances, but enjoy the overall film. You usually find that British productions of Christie and anything really, have a way of stereotyping Americans rather unflatteringly. It's funny that in this American production, they made it even worse. But, it's about film personalities, and I guess they are fair game. If this film has piqued your interest, you might find the book enjoyable. You'll not be disappointed, I think, with its wider scope and development. Also, if you have opportunity and are enough of a fan of Christie, you probably have seen the BBC Marple series. If not, I think you would enjoy it. This film definitely has the usual Hollywood treatment, but it's light entertainment for its spectacle value, if nothing else.

Fabulous cast chews the scenery to make Agatha Christie's story of murder and revenge a total delight. It's a shame that Angela Lansbury went to TV for Murder She Wrote rather than bringing more Miss Marple adventures to the big screen.

This is a good adaptation of Agatha Christie book. There is no over acting by the major stars.
