The story line of Murder Most Foul follows the formula introduced in the first movie and scrupulously followed by the next three.

One of my absolute faves as a kid. Ms. Marple comes across several bodies while doing a stage play. See with BLITHE SPIRIT for a Margaret Rutherford night. Luv MR always.
