inglés It is well known that Agatha Christie is a classic that won’t disappoint. And on the top of that Julian Jarrold is a master of TV films, because in addition to the classically brilliant British acting performances, there is a number of original moments and visual tweaks that embellished the entire two-part film.

inglés The Witness for the Prosecution doesn't really stand out from the stories of the Queen of Whodunits, but I still got carried away for two hours with a case about love, guilt and forgiveness. Truth spills over into lies and vice versa - the script plays with the viewer and their judgement, even though you can predict the identity of the perpetrator if you have watched or read a thing or two. I loved more than one audiovisually captivating scene and the casting of Toby Jones in the lead role. ()

inglés I'm only familiar with the original short story, I haven't read or seen the play, and I'm literally blown away by how such a short story managed to be so delightful and how much potential there was still hidden in it. The multiple drama is dominated by Toby Jones, whose Mayhew has become a memorable character. ()
