by Hugh Pentecost ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A
Swilling liquor and spewing Shakespeare, aging Actor John Hilary is deserted by his ambitious third wife for his son Jason. She is murdered the same night and John, among many others, is at the scene of the crime. Thereafter, all is sound, fury and every prop of pedestrian mystery writing right up to the scene where the full cast troops to a nightclub for the confrontation. Here, everything is dramatically solved as no theatrical mystery ever was. An amateur night effort from old pro Pentecost.
