Merry Christmas!

Thank you VERY much, Spike! Much appreciated.
I saw some comments where people are saying that the actors overacted and that the film is full of cliches. The overacting made the characters more interesting (although in other films I prefer the subtle touch), and when I watch thrillers, I expect to see certain cliches (like the isolated mansion, etc.).
By the way, after a two-year hiatus, I finally got the whodunit threads going again. Feel free to join in whenever you wish.

By the way, I saw several films for the first time ever a couple of weeks ago. I was wondering if you were the one who recommended them to me? I know that I heard about those films either on this board or on the CFB:
The Murder Man
(1935 whodunit)
Uncle Silas
a.k.a.
The Inheritance
(1940s British gothic thriller)
A Time to Love and a Time to Die
(heartbreaking war film)
If you recommended any of those, thank you! I really enjoyed all three of them.

Wow Spike - I hadn't see you on the Classic Film board for awhile and wondered about that; glad you're recovering.
