This is one of a series of competent murder mysteries directed by George Pollock based on the Agatha Christie character, Miss Marple. Margaret Rutherford stars as the grey-haired, wily sleuth who will not give up until all the pieces of a puzzle have been neatly put in place. This time around, an old village recluse is found dead and everyone except Miss Marple believes he had a heart attack. She is suspicious because four members of the dead man's family stand to benefit from his death,

Enjoyable and competently made standard whodunit in the Miss Marple series.
...the sight of Margaret Rutherford in an evening gown dancing the twist is in itself almost worth the rest of the film.
The story follows the general pattern set forth in the first movie.... The major difference is that this one is a bit more amusing than the first.
Pure delight.
As usual, Rutherford's Miss Marple is a plus.
Enjoyable outing with superior actors. Margaret Rutherford will always be the best Miss Jane Marple.

Margaret Rutherford is a great Miss Marple but the story is lacking a bit.
