Ma femme a disparu

This is a great movie for those Who love old fashion mysteries. Harry reports to Lt.Rudameyer that his wife Chris is missing.

Chris shows up with Father Macklin, and this is when the fun begins. Elliot Gould, Margot Kidder And Mike Farrell are great...But Fred Gwynne is wonderful as Father Macklin. Check it out!!!!!

This is about as good as a TV-movie can get. I saw it when it first appeared on TV in 1986, and looked for it for the next 12 years, as it couldn't be found on video, then without warning, this excellent film hit video and cable on The Mystery Channel. The plot is not original, but it is a clever idea to borrow, and it has a helluva twist at the end, and it leaves you hanging all the way until that last minute. Fred "Herman Munster" Gwynne does a wonderful job, as well as Mike "MASH's B.J. Honeycutt" Farrell.

Completely forgotten and overlooked, this is a murder-mystery par excellence.

Not generally a favourite genre of mine, I stumbled across this movie on TV late one night years ago and never forgot it. I then managed to track it down on an ancient VHS quite recently and watched it again. It was every bit as good as I remembered.

No special effects, no overblown budgets. Just a cracking script, superb performances, tight and efficient direction and one of the best twists ever.

An absolute masterclass in small budget movie-making.

This movie begs us not to depend on appearances-the events in this film are not what they seem to be! Nor are all the people are who they say they are!! And $750.000 is at stake!!

I learned a lesson from reading Agatha Christie books-and I think it applies to this movie: If you suspect the person who is least likely to be suspected then he(or she)is likely to be guilty and, take whatever appears to be the truth-believe the opposite-then you are likely to come to the truth!!!

What a fabulous Movie. The Cast includes Elliott Gould, Mike Farrell, Margot Kidder and Fred Gwynne (of the Munsters fame). The story has more twists and turns than a tin of worms, but you are kept in suspense right up until the end. What a great plot. I have seen this movie more than a dozen times, I have it on VHS but would love to buy it on DVD, but unfortunately it does not seem to be available at this stage. Mike Farrell plays the distraught husband (Harry) whose wife seems to be missing, while Elliott Gould is great as the Lieutenant of Police and one of my favourite actors Fred Gwynne plays the Priest. Margot Kidder is also great in this Movie. And how could we forget "Max" the dog? I would equally rate this move with another called "Murder Ordained" which I also have on VHS and also DVD. I would recommend "Vanishing Act" to anyone who loves a great mystery with plenty of twists to the plot. I rate it 9/10
