Kuuluisa taiteilija löydetään kuolleena. Poirot on illallistanut samassa ravintolassa uhrin kanssa murhaa edeltävänä iltana. Onkin mahdollista, että Poirot on nähnyt tappajan omin silmin. (SF Film Fin.)
Arvostelut (2)
Like The Adventure of Johnnie Waverly, Four and Twenty Blackbirds is a rather mediocre whodunit in which the obvious identity of the perpetrator and, to some extent, the predictability of the plot is a stumbling block, especially due to the smaller cast of characters and the (possible SPOILER!) "badly done make-up" (end of possible SPOILER!).

Identity exchange simply belongs to detective stories, that's clear. What I like about this one is that it's immediately clear from the beginning that such an exchange has taken place, but what's actually more interesting is the fact of who replaced the person in question and why. In this case, it works very well, and despite the slow pace, the story is sufficiently intriguing.
