Although the evidence appears to be overwhelming in the strangulation murder of a blackmailer, Miss Marple's sole 'not guilty' vote han gs the jury 11-1. She becomes convinced that the real murderer is a member of a local theatrical troupe, so she joins them in order to gather information. The clues lead back many years to a single disastrously unsuccessful 1951 performance of a dreadful play written by the group's hammy director, H. Driffold Cosgood. Although at that time, several of the current cast members were only children, more murders follow before Miss Marple ultimately exposes the killer.　(🐺)　英国影片。片长90分(fèn )，根據Mrs. McGinty's Dead改編，原(🎑)著是波羅故(😞)事(🙈)。因影片将主角变为(👎)马(mǎ )普尔(🔀)小(xiǎo )姐(🔹)和剧(🚁)情的更改(gǎi )(🕰)引起原(yuán )小(xiǎo )說作者克里斯蒂强烈不满，影片(📰)本身也(yě )遭(zāo )遇票(💅)房和评论(lùn )(🚠)惨败。主演Margaret Rutherford还出演過另外3部以(♊)马普(pǔ )尔小姐为(🏉)主(🥖)角的电影，其中(🐢)1部亦(🚱)是根据(jù )波洛(luò )故事改编(〰)(「葬礼之后」)，另1部是原创剧本。80年代(dài )在多部电视(🤷)剧(jù )中扮(bàn )(👰)演塔(tǎ )彭丝(sī )(👬)的Francesca Annis也在(zài )本片中(🕙)扮演一个小角(jiǎo )色。
