I collect Criterion DVDs and expect them to be the fully restored works of art they are. Even so, the quality of the films on these DVDs is pretty darn good. "There she goes, tail up and head down" on the trail of another murderer-and she will get her man or woman as the case may be.I agree with the reviewer who said one doesn't buy these DVDs with the expectation of Criterion remastering. Jane Marple-Godmother and Aunt to several young people-I wish I had known her personally-but this is the next best thing after the books. She always has her knitting needles in hand, working on a baby blanket or a sweater for a nephew. Occasionally she travels hither and thither to visit friends or take advantage of a lovely trip planned by a nephew. Miss Marple is a noticing kind of elderly woman who lives in the Village of Saint Mary Mead. Dine at a first class hotel in London where the waiters wear white gloves or have tea and cakes with Miss Jane Marple-she might even offer you a glass of elderberry wine. If you're free for a holiday, take a motorcoach trip and visit Blenheim and Stourton. Visit the Norman Church for Evensong and note original frescos installed during the Middle Ages. Observe the Vicar and his wife on their bicycles. Carry your leather suitcase into the vine covered cottage, or visit your old school chum in her palatial mansion. WWII is over and this is your opportunity to enjoy a vanished world of vintage buses, cars and trains.
