Great review! What’s funny, before I read that, I had only seen the poster and the title of the movie-I thought it might be a remake of Strangers on a Train!
It is an amazing flim with a talented cast, Blake Lively was a stand-out for me and Anna Kendrick was perfect for the role as Stephanie. This film should be seen by people who liked thrillers and mysteries!!!
After reading your review I really want to see this! I would normally wait til this type of film came out on demand, but I may not wait. My 87 year old mother was watching a couple of the new Agatha Christie shows on Amazon with us, Crooked House and Trial by Innocence. While discussing the various twists and turns she observed that there are just so many answers to the ‘Who dunnit?’ question. This brought up the ‘Diabolique’ reference which you mentioned in your review. We were trying to think of other mysteries that have used a similar tricky device. What other genre of film could engage 3 generations from 21 to 87 in lively watching and discussing?
