This stiff (attempted) murder mystery must be one of the earliest British talkies, and the best thing you can say about it is that at least the sound is fairly well-recorded. The film has zero style, suspense or interest - it doesn't even have the interest of spotting future stars before they "made it big" because the cast (and director) are completely unknown. Supposedly it takes place on a ship, but mostly you'll just see two or three rooms. There is some minor cleverness to the method in which the (attempted) murder is conducted. Best line: "I've just escaped from a couple of fairies!". *1/2 out of 4.
