#JULIA MCKENZIE MISS MARPLE SERIES MOVIE#
Meme at Sweet Freedom, and the second half of Katie’s 2014 Book to Movie Challenge The following review is submitted for Todd Mason’s Tuesday’s Overlooked Film On the face of it, this unusually ‘psychological’ of Christie’s books would seem to be a poor fit for the series – does it work? And how does it compare to the earlier cinema adaptation? This is the 23rd two-hour film to be made in the series and the tenth to be adapted from a non-Marple source. As the sleuth only features in a dozen novels and twenty short stories, the production company have been expanding the canon quite considerably in this way. Endless Night, among the best of Agatha Christie’s later novels, is the latest to be ‘Marple-ised’ – that is to say, adapted for the ongoing Marple TV series by inserting Jane Marple into a story where she did not originally appear.
