Never mind purists who bemoan Margaret Rutherford's incarnation of Agatha Christie's celebrated spinster sleuth. These four British films, produced between 1961 and 64, are jolly good, regardless of their tenuous connection with Miss Marple as written, or with Christie herself. One of the films, in fact, Murder Ahoy, is an original screenplay credited as "an interpretation of Miss Marple." And two others, Murder at the Gallop and Murder Most Foul were based on books featuring Christie's other famed detective, Hercule Poirot." But no matter. The redoubtable Rutherford indelibly makes Marple her very own, or, as she proclaims to Inspector Craddock (Charles Tingwell), with whom she locks horns throughout all four films, "I am always myself." Rutherford makes a formidable first impression in Murder She Said, based on Christie's 4:50 from Paddington, in which the armchair sleuth goes undercover as a servant after witnessing a murder on a train. In Murder at the Gallop, based on After the Funeral, where there's a will, there's murder. In Murder Ahoy, Marple discovers a ship of thieves. In Murder Most Foul, Marple deadlocks a jury and joins a theatrical troupe to prove the defendant's innocence.   Actors Margaret Rutherford, Lionel Jeffries, Charles 'Bud' Tingwell, Nicholas Parsons, Derek Nimmo, Miles Malleson, Stringer Davis, Finlay Currie, James Robertson Justice, Joan Hickson & Arthur Kennedy Director George Pollock Certificate PG Year 1961 Screen Fullscreen 4:3 Languages English - Dolby Digital (1.0) Mono Duration 5 hours 50 minutes (approx) Region Region 2 - Will only play on European Region 2 or multi-region DVD players.  

A collection of four Miss Marple mysteries starring Margaret Rutherford as Jane Marple. In 'Murder She Said' (1961) Miss Marple begins her own murder investigation after the police refuse to believe her story of a murder on a passing train carriage, as there is no body. In 'Murder at the Gallop' (1963) Miss Marple suspects foul play when a wealthy old recluse, Mr Enderby, dies of a heart attack. In 'Murder Ahoy' (1964) Miss Marple boards a ship used for the rehabilitation of young criminals after one of her fellow trustees of the scheme is murdered. Finally in 'Murder Most Foul' (1964) Miss Marple is not convinced that the police have the right killer after hearing all the evidence as a juror at his murder trial.
