a tightly weave murder mystery highlight a brilliant performance by mia farrow . i first learn about this movie on the mia farrow . com website and saw a photo from it . she be simply breathtaking in this movie a she range from shy innocent to the final climatic scene where all be tell . the scene along the nile be beautiful to behold . it be too bad that mia do not get a chance to do more movie of this caliber . nivens play a great role also . the snake scene be one of my favorite and especially the reaction of the manager of the boat they be on . the plotting be fast paced and you really do not have a clue who do it until the very end . it be a complete surprise . a be usual in a poroit mystery and all of the main character and and even the non main character may be the guilty party and so you always have to watch for all the twist and turn . cheer indeed .
