New Greeting for“Hi - just wondered if you have seen the movie "Murder by Death" which is a complete spoof on "and Then There Were None" and every other literary sleuth, too. It's great fun, available on Netflix for instant viewing. It stars Peter Falk, Maggie Smith, Peter Sellers and Truman Capote - too funny. Thought I'd mention it as a good prep to the July meeting.
