The reasoning of the case is too simple, and the mental journey of grandma's creation is not deep enough. The teasing of grandma's works makes people...

The story behind "Murder on the Nile" (previously known as "The Truth of Murder") is, albeit fake, fun. The solution to the easy discovery of Granny's murderer is to make everyone/group look like the murderer? But letting someone who has no sense of existence be a murderer will make readers uncomfortable, and it is difficult for a detective novel...

Funny movie. Because I don't sleep well, my IQ bottoms out, and I don't have the brain to analyze anything. But what feels problematic is that, since the conclusion of the movie is that the most suspected person is the real murderer, why didn't the police focus their investigation on the mother and son...

I don't understand what the theme of the story is. The true meaning of "murder"? The essence of speculative fiction writing? "Sophisticated"? I don't even know what the genre of this movie is. Fake documentaries? Biographical film? Theoretical science? Detective suspense? do not...

Agatha and the Truth of Murder quotes
-
[Sir Arthur Conan Doyle has told Agatha Christie that he once suffered from writer's block and cured it by designing a golf course, and recommends that Agatha should do the same when she asks his advice because her readers are guessing the identity of the culprits in her books. She consults Sir Hugh Persimmion, an expert on golf course design]
Agatha Christie: I want to design a golf course.
Sir Hugh Persimmion: I see. Really?
Agatha Christie: Yes.
Sir Hugh Persimmion: Well, in that case, I'm afraid my answer's quite short. You can't.
Agatha Christie: Excuse me?
Sir Hugh Persimmion: [patronisingly] There isn't a golf club I know that would commission a design from a woman. I understand there has been a trend of late for ladies to golf. But really, the sheer complexity of a designer's task is beyond the capabilities of a woman. No matter how capable that woman is.
Agatha Christie: [smiling ingratiatingly] I see. I hadn't realised. But thinking about it, how could I have been so stupid? Imagine a woman being able to design the preamble to putting something small in a hole. A woman might just present the hole and have done. And where would be the fun in that? There'd be nothing to groom, for a start.
[she stands up]
Agatha Christie: [still smiling sweetly] Thank you for your time. It's been pointless.
[Sir Hugh looks nonplussed as he realises that Agatha's charming "climbdown" and farewell were actually intended to be highly insulting - and highly suggestive as well]

Detective Inspector Dicks: Although I would rather be here than searching for authors in bushes, I do not like working with one hand tied behind my back.
