After watching those two holiday films, I was in the mood for a mystery, so I took off the shelf AND THEN THERE WERE NONE, the 1945 Rene Clair version.
This film, which has been in the public domain for years, is in desperate need of an overhaul. I'm sure the releasing company used a videotape master for this DVD, and it was done early in the DVD process. Thus, sharpness is sometimes lacking, sound doesn't always quite synch up with lip movements, and there are speckles and spotting present.
The mystery is so fabulous, however, that none of this matters. I watched through the first three murders, and then saved my place to begin there tomorrow.
I'm sure I'll be getting to WHITE CHRISTMAS tomorrow.
