Unter Verdacht (1991)
44KUnter Verdacht: Directed by Simon Moore. With Liam Neeson, Kenneth Cranham, Maggie O’Neill, Alan Talbot. In Brighton in 1959, disgraced cop turned private detective Tony Aaron works largely on falsifying adulteries for use as evidence in divorce cases. He involves his wife as the fictional co-respondent for painter Carlo Stasio but the pair are shot dead in the hotel room. In charge of the case is Frank, Tony’s ex-partner still on the Brighton force. His most likely suspects are Angeline, Stasio’s mistress who is set to inherit his house and pictures, and Tony himself, parts of whose story don’t seem to add up.
“A bit of a confusing start of this perfect whodunit is the only bad thing about this film.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTo start with the script, it´s brilliant. It is credible, well written,has clues that makes it worth watching over and over again (even without the surprises that you encounter the first time you watch it). I like the fact that this is not a Hollywood production. I seriously do not think that this script would have made it to production without some changes if it was made in hollywood.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThen the acting. Liam Neeson puts on a splendid performance, complex acting with certain subtle things that I did not notice the first viewing, which made sense while watching it again. His best film IMO (knowing that a lot of people thinks that u0026quot;Schindler´s listu0026quot; is better). I do not recognize the rest of the actors, but no one did bad.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGrade: 9 out of 10u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSo if you like suspense whodunit, this is a must see.”
