DESCRIPTION:

In this vintage "whodunit" from the early days of talkies, a parlor game of charades takes a dark twist when someone is murdered by a gun that was meant to contain blanks. With a storyline that unfolds like a game of Clue, viewers and characters alike are drawn into trying to solve the mystery before the police do. Meanwhile, infidelity and a disputed inheritance further cloud the facts. Early film fans will have fun spotting such actors as Aileen Pringle, Robert Elliot, Leslie Fenton and Alice White in this cleverly-lit production.
