Event
Towards Zero - April 26
Agatha Christie fans--and anyone who likes an old-fashioned whodunit, blithely played -- will come away clucking from Towards Zero. (Derek Elley, Variety)
Mistress of crime Agatha Christie gets a witty Gallic update of one of her most esteemed novels in this murder mystery that could be called a whos-gonna-get-it. As a character observes in the first scene, most whodunits are dull because the murder occurs at the beginning; in Towards Zero, the murder will come at the end, when a series of interlocking events converge on the fatal zero hour. The potential victims congregate at a Brittany seaside mansion presided over by a dowager (screen legend Darrieux) whose playboy nephew (Melvil Popaud) unwisely invites both his former (Chiara Mastroianni) and present (Laura Smet in a sensational sexpot role) wives to spend le weekend. (Euro Union fest). With Franois Morel, Danielle Darrieux.
