The Kennel murder case 1933 - The model of the whodunit genre


IMDB link: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0024210/
IMDB rating: 6,9


Director: Michael Curtiz
Main Cast: William Powell, Mary Astor, Eugene Pallette, Ralph Morgan



"Often (and accurately) described as a model of the whodunit genre, The Kennel Murder Case stars William Powell, making his fourth screen appearance as S. S. Van Dine's dilettante detective Philo Vance.
Directed with crispness and efficiency by the reliable Michael Curtiz, the film is a good example of the high production standards of Warner Bros. in its post-silent era. The script is a solid whodunit packed with interesting characters, well-performed and impeccably cast. Much of the verbosity of S. S. Van Dine's novel is missing from Kennel Murder Case, making for a briskly told story." - http://www.allmovie.com/movie/the-kennel-murder-case-v27085
