Truly Miss Marple: The Curious Case of Margaret Rutherford (2012)

6.4/10 89 min Documentary TV Movie

Overview

The true life story of Margaret Rutherford (1892-1972) is in fact much more eccentric than the most famous fictional role she ever played: Miss Jane Marple, Agatha Christie's amateur sleuth. Rutherford's version was the very first appearance of Miss Marple on the big screen and it was far removed though from the petite, upper middle-class lady in the detective novels.
