When renowned crime novelist Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer) is found dead just after his 85th birthday, the debonair detective Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) is mysteriously enlisted to investigate. Although the police (Lakeith Stanfield) inititally rule the case a suicide, Blanc sifts through a heap of red herrings and self-serving lies to find the culprit among a star-studded cast of suspects (Chris Evans, Jamie Lee Curtis, Don Johnson, Michael Shannon, Toni Collette, Ana de Armas). D: Rian Johnson, US, 2019, 2h10m
