content: This is a movie that my mother took me and my siblings to when it first came out. I remember loving the title and thinking it would be really scary since it was about murder and death. What I remember most about it is Maggie Smith saying, "Dickie! Where's my Dickie?!" I bought it for sentimental reasons. It's a really great movie, if only for all the stars that appear. It's also got Truman Capote, who is strange and wonderful. It's got lots of twists and turn. The introduction is a little long - the piece where everyone arrives at the mansion. It's a little gimicky, but it's Neil Simon, so that's to be expected. Would I recommend it to others? Sure. Was I a tiny bit disappointed that it was not as wonderful as I remember it? Sure. The last thirty years made it a little better in my mind than it actually is. It's got some good extras, but not as many as I generally like. But it's a good nostalgia pick and there are some great performances.
