I love this movie. It makes me so angry that the butthurt Star Wars fans tried to tank it just because Rian Johnson is the director. When Blanc gets tender and tells Marta she didn't kill Harlan and that she is a good nurse, that gets me every time. Some thing you might have missed. When Blanc first meets Marta he looks down at her feet. There is a drop of blood on her shoe that she hasn't noticed. All throughout the film Blanc says things like "the game is afoot, eh Watson". He knew she was involved and since she couldn't lie, he kept her around, it is also why he calls her Watson since Sherlock Holmes says "The game is afoot".

I remembered what Harlan said about Ransom, “He plays life like it’s a game without consequences until you can no longer tell the difference between a stage prop and a real knife.” Brilliant foreshadowing! when Marta threw up on Ransom that was actually baby food mixed with water. Knowing that makes it easier to watch. The movie was an homage to Agatha Christie novels. Have you read Agatha Christie? Her works broke the rules of the mystery genre; she became known as The Queen of Crime. Her novels go from 1920-1970s. Actress who played Marta gave a phenomenal performance! Glad they cut away to her reaction to the suicide; the look of horror on her face was outstanding! Like Blanc said, Harlan’s demise was the result of “a tragedy of errors.” When he pointed out how Marta could visually spot the differences between the morphine and the correct medication, he said it so quickly. Needed subtitles for that. You’ll enjoy Glass Onion as well. Coming to Netflix on Dec 23!

My favorite touch in this movie is the playing of Gordon Lightfoot's Sundown in the sausage and beans scene. You have to understand the background behind the song. The subject of the song is Lightfoot's girlfriend at the time, Kathy Smith. Years later after they had broken up Smith took up with John Belushi. She was with him at a bungalow at the Beverly Hills Hotel when he died. She injected him with a speedball that he overdosed on and spent eight years in prison for manslaughter as a result. So you have a song about a woman who accidentally kills a celebrity with an overdose in a movie about a woman who thinks she accidentally killed a celebrity with an overdose.

There's two movie genres at work here. The first is the classic Agatha Christie murder mystery. You get introduced to a murder and to the characters. And the audience expects it to follow the typical format of a mystery where they try to solve it. About a quarter of the way in, you see exactly how Harlan dies, and it turns into a crime movie, where the audience cheers for the criminal protaganist, and hopes that Marta get away with it. And right at the end, Rian Johnson changes the genre again, having tricked the audience and reveals that it has indeed been a murder mystery the whole time. It's genius. Because audiences know both of these genres, they're familiar with how they work. But they're not consciously aware that the genre is being changed on them.

If you rewatch the scene where Blanc first meets Marta you can see him look down at her feet, look up and start to talk, and then he looks down again. He saw the blood on her sneaker the first time and he looks down again to confirm it.

10:15 We find out in a deleted scene that her company is bankrupt. People keep getting rashes from her skin products. Don't think Meg knows about it though. We also find out from another deleted scene that Walt's in debt to the wrong people - insider trading that got out of hand - and that that's why his racist wife shrieked when someone dropped a champagne glass and why he's using a cane in this movie (it was the result of a warning). So yeah, they both have real good motive.

One amazing detail that not many people notice is when you look at the Painting of Harlan, you see he is frowning the whole movie. But after Ransom is arrested and Marta gets the inheritance, it shows it again and he is instead smiling, as if to say “Good job kiddo” since she won.

Such a freakin' great film, it's like getting pinged around in a pinball machine from one plot to the other (yes, I'm -old- dated). I'd also recommend another whodunit that flew under the radar of most people but is one of my favorites, with snappy dialogue, humor, heavy drama, and excellent acting, titled 'Kiss Kiss, Bang, Bang', starring Val Kilmer and Robert Downey Jr from 2005. Really a hidden gem. The second major recommendation is 'The Salton Sea' (also with Kilmer), Peter Sarsgaard, and an insane role played by Vincent D'Onofrio; that film should have won major awards.

The grandma gives you the killer when she sees Marta drop back down. Also, in the garden, when Blanc is in the shadows, he says to Marta, “something is aFOOT”. He also said, the first thing he noticed when he spoke to her, was the drop of blood on her FOOT. So many little details that you can easily brush over.

Fun fact: jamie Lee Curtis has experience with finding out her father disinherited all his children after he died. It's unknown how she felt about this compared to her character.

The thing with the blood splatter, I love how they took note of that, if you look at the way he was killed and the way the blood flows, it's pretty much IMPOSSIBLE for someone to have slit his throat. There would be some sign of disruption in the blood. I find it fascinating how forensics experts can tell the murder weapon and the general location of the murder based on the blood splatters and which way the tail of the splatter is facing and which angle they're on.

The best mysteries, give you all of the clues... and yet, we need someone to pull the pieces together! One of my favorite movies!

When the family is discussing politics Richard calls her into the room, supposedly to have her join the discussion, but then he talks *about* her and doesn't give her a chance to talk. She's just a prop in his argument. And to top it off, he hands her his plate when he's done - he treats her like she's the maid.

This is one of my favorite movies and you notice new little things each time you watch the movie. I think these films that should at least be watched once for the set, once for the dialogue and once for the plot in whatever order you see fit because all of those feed into one another

Michael Shannon was my absolute favorite, there's not one scene that he didn't have me laughing

Apparently when he presses the piano key it’s to signal the inspector to ask about when the person they were interviewing arrived to the house on the day of the crime.

oh my god, the hole within the hole ananlogy makes so much sense. There's a donut made of knives in the main hall, symbolising the many people that have a motive to kill Harlon. Nobody sits at the very centre of the donut hole until Benoit Blanc, who does it once he finally figures everything out. The only people to fill that same hole after that is Marta and Ransom. Ransom being the last person to do so. Because he's the hole within the hole. Cuz he's an asshole.

one of my favorite movies and i love that they get frank oz (aka yoda, subconcious guard dave from inside out, grover, miss piggy, fozzy, sam the eagle, animal, bert and tons more) to be the will reader

She tried to call 911 for Harlan but HE'S the one who made her hang up. So, it's not surprising she called 911 for Fran.

I didn’t really ‘solve’ it but I guessed pretty early that whatever else happened he didn’t overdose on Morphine. He stayed way too sharp right up to the last minute. And I thought Ransom had something to do with it but couldn’t say what or why.
