Murder by Death (Screen 1)

Angel Member and Flashback Cinema Creator John Hersker will join us to provide a brief introduction to this silly mystery film from the the 1970s. Written by Neil Simon, this delightfully clever comedy spoofs the classic, Agatha Christie-style murder mysteries that captivated audiences throughout the 20th Century. A millionaire invites five famed detectives to dinner at his remote castle. When they arrive, they are informed that one of them will be murdered at midnight, and whoever can solve the crime will win a million dollars! Sporting an incredible ensemble including Peter Sellers, David Niven, Alec Guiness, Maggie Smith and even Truman Capote!
