one welcome to arts and culture we'll get the real knives out in just a moment and also get the goods on these stories. in times of artificial intelligence and virtual reality term an artist clément explores what it means to be human in our digital dominated age and. she's been on stage since she was a kid but now a polish based sensation which is shaking up the just scene and very coolly bringing her 4 strings into the spotlight. and we're in for some fun with this $19.00 pages homage to the golden age of whodunit films agatha christie a director ryan johnson's brilliant trick is to bring the whole thing into the modern age and set it squarely in the trump era well it delivers more than its share of punches of america's gaping social political divide while the dynamite cast simply has a field day with its style and structure. if you've heard this one

before corona a wealthy crime writer celebrating his 85th birthday with this is a strange family then murder most foul killed. everyone's a suspect it's a classic agatha christie style story. almost. as if the party pre my dad's death. it's a great work area director ryan johnson and his star studded cast obviously had a ball with this modern day whodunit. you know the film is set in the trump era. the klan like every other u.s. family on thanksgiving these days fights over issues of immigration and white privilege. it's not an antitrust movie and it's not a proton trump movie it is
10:47 pm
a family conversation about the issues that are plaguing our country i think it's not just but at its heart out is a rollicking twisty thriller that never lets its politics get in the way of entertainment detect or in the way of a good one liner. of course what is this what is a right mr drysdale c s i k f c. i love that one heads together tailor made for thanksgiving viewing scott rush for joining me in the studio welcome to the whodunit is a genre it seems to me way that we don't see it very often on screen these days you have a list of the big screen i mean we had brannock did. these are an express a couple of years ago but it was more of an astrologer piece this is really a modern day take on the whodunit genre and and it's a big challenge really key because the the john has been done to death on television i mean c.s.i. which they could hear is sort of killed the the movie mystery star ok so does ryan
10:48 pm
johnson manage to pull it off yet tries and i think he does i mean what's what's what's fun about this is he obviously loves the genre and he really is this is really a tribute to these the christie films of the 1970 s. you know the with peter ustinov and so on and and which were always really fun and always had a laugh out of the whole thing will be incredibly well plotted mysteries but in this film as well it has a lot to do with the cast which is just to stay articulate it was amazing here is that they so many them are playing against type i mean it's great to see daniel. craig not being james von brunn but just a comedic character he has he plays the detective amazingly named ben wall blow and click southern accent which almost literally sounds as if you see the scenery but he's one of many i mean toni collette is phenomenal you've got you've got jamie lee curtis you've got one after the other all with incredibly sharp performances of that really bring out the this whole film and make it make a child make the whole sort of political aspects of the film which are they are

sort of float by it's just one you know half an hour an hour and a half of it pertains to this the meat to it but it but it's definitely bringing out its last and there's a relatively new faces cuban actors and the aftermath of her yeah this is where she's probably the one face that people don't know from this amazing cast of she was in the blade runner sequel last year so she you might have not seen her for met but here she plays the maid and she's sort of the good guy you know she's beautiful a good guy should basically the be the watson to the homes of daniel craig. and she's an incredible film. character in this film because she's the only sort of warm heart in the center of the film amongst all these sort of white privileged and quite horrible rich characters and we're going to be seeing a lot more of her she's going to be in the new james bond film alongside daniel craig how exciting so i'm thinking very quickly that this gets a thumbs up where we can go yeah if you if you're a fan of murder mysteries definitely but even if you just want an hour and a half with your family and not fighting for an hour and
