i saw the movie at the venecia film festival . it be a terrible movie . i be even surprise it be select for screen even a hors competition . first let me say that even though azema and arditi be forcedly advertise a main character and arditi have probably a maximum of 10 minute of screen time and azema hardly say any word during the whole movie . everything be terrible . acting be bad and story and edit be awful and and even the filming of landscape of south of france be totally un inspire . the movie never build any tension . we be not sure why larsan be such a threat to begin with . then it do a really bad job at set the stage for the mystery represent it never take the time to clearly help the audience understand the lay out of the house or where people be suppose to be so that when the murder happen and we really understand that there be clearly something unsolvable about the mystery which would help grad audience attention . because the movie be so messy and fuzzy and it be tough to understand that there be something really challenge happen here . and then and there be the moment when you be suppose to laugh probably to ease the tension that be never there in the first place . these be the most pathetic . you feel embarrass for the actor play such bad line . in summary and stay away from that movie . it be not worth spend a $ on it .
