Viewing Notes

Movie number four’s hint was “nostalgic Agatha Christie homage” which nails it. I’m shocked I’d never seen this one before. Sam Elliot is great and his fish-out-of-water, no nonsense, aww-shucks American with a Southwestern drawl character really make the movie. This movie is the epitome of late ‘70s filmmaking, from the director of RETURN OF THE JEDI.
