English stiffness Sir William seems to have been killed twice.
Before watching the movie, I expected to see an exciting Agatha Christie-style detective, which means there must be a murder, a large circle of suspects, and a clever detective who will solve the whole case. There was nothing like this here, not well, that is, of course, there was a murder, and even some kind of investigation, but everything somehow did not look like a detective.
All the actors played of course great, especially Clive Owen, who was still unknown to anyone and was just beginning his acting career.
In general, the director wanted just to show a couple of days in the life of English high society, with drinking tea and hunting birds, but it turned out to be a little protracted.
