The comedy whodunit See How They Run is a lot of fun. Set in and around a long-running Agatha Christie play in 1950s London, and the movie production waiting in the wings, it's full of Easter Eggs referencing Agatha's works and other whodunits, and a kind of self-aware humor that delightfully comments on this type of story. While Sam Rockwell is the detective in charge - a Clouseau-esque drunkard who nevertheless gets on with it - the heart and soul of the piece is the constable played by Saoirse Ronan. She is HILARIOUS as the over-eager policewoman, making for a great comedy double act you wouldn't mind seeing in further mysteries. (If Knives Out can do it...) Director Tom George doesn't have a lot of credits to his name, but this particular effort looks like it's taking a page from Wes Anderson (and perhaps some of the actors involved help give this impression). Not too much as to be a rip-off, but enough to lend a designed theatricality that works with the film's themes. We genuinely chuckled throughout. 1 year 7 months ago -
