Ben Kingsley, people!!!!

In all honesty, I am one of "those people" who do NOT try to figure out what is happening and "who done it" in a who-done-it movie or book. I just sit there and let it wash over me, look at the scenery and get entertained. By SIR Ben Kingsley (Or, oh lordy lord, is it Lord Ben Kingsley? Let's go with Sir.) He was worth one star.

There were no likable characters in the film, except for the waitress. She was always most pleasant. And the cat. But It was hard not to have someone to root for - especially this day in age.

There was great scenery. But that was about it. I do like Nordic noir, so of course this intrigued me. But usually it's colder and much more brutal than this one was.

I do think think it's worth a watch. Why not? Did I mention it has SIR Ben Kingsley in it? :)

The Book of Confusion?

Missing Wife, Dead Author's book translation, poor Ben Kingsley having to listen to it all and the viewer thinking what the hell is going on. Don't get me wrong it's not a bad watch there was some intriguing moments that kept you guessing. Most of it is in english except when David talks to his publisher they talk in german no subtitles. Its more of a afternoon matinee film than anything else.

Murder Afoot

A plan, another plan and a final coda, David, a stolid Germanic sort, connects the dots in a book he translates. The story is played out as a story within a story, David narrates to the reclusive Alex. Well, the title tells it all. Nice noir with great Alpine scenery.

A plodding, convoluted mess

Excruciatingly slow moving, convoluted plot that drones incessantly towards a mediocre conclusion

Just relax and enjoy.

A little slow paced but enough twists to maintain your interest. I actually liked the Benno character. Cool calm and collected. The ending could have been a bit more powerful. But at least it had an ending unlike so many of the schlock stories that are put on film these days. Worth a look.

Curiosidades
This movie, Intrigo: Dear Agnes (2019) and Intrigo: Samaria (2019) comprise an anthology trilogy. As an anthology, the trilogy is tied together by story themes - hate, revenge and nemesis - rather than by characters. The only characters common to all three movies are the not seen opening narrator, portrayed by Karen Archer, who speaks about those themes, and Doris, portrayed by Tor Clark, a server at the titular "Intrigo", a café in the fictional town of Maardam where many of the characters meet. Michael Byrne portrays Keller in both "Author" and "Samaria", Ed Cooper Clarke portrays Thomas Neuman(n)-Hansen in both "Author" and "Agnes", and Cal MacAninch portrays Erich Neuman(n)-Hansen in both "Agnes" and "Samaria", and one can only assume, although it is not implicitly stated, that in all three cases the actor is indeed playing the same character in both movies. In addition, the assumed name of the translator in "Author" and the ad copywriter in "Samaria" are both Henry Martens.

Citações
[first lines]
Opening Narrator: The people of the world are more or less the same. Thought we may come in different shapes and colors, we all share the same inheritance, and we all have our back stories, and our secrets. Like this man, let's call him Henry, trying to find his way on a remote Greek island.
Opening Narrator: Even though evolution might seem to mature us, there are still parts of our brain that belong to our reptile ancestors. Although we've convinced ourselves that hate, revenge and nemesis belong to the past, our ancient ancestors' blood still runs in our veins... whether we like it or not.
