Anyone see this one yet? I saw it last night and was pretty well absorbed by the mystery and the amazing circumstancial evidence that seemed to amount to nothing to the police on the case. It wasn't the best in terms of sheer dramatic entertainment, etc but it had its moments. I didn't know enough about the actual events to make an evaluation of the accuracy of the film but after reading a comparison, it was pretty close for the brief time a movie can occupy and especially for the actual physical resemblences of the characters to their real life counterparts.
Puzzles are interesting and challenging on several levels and forensic investigations sort of take that to a more phyisical level. When they are combined in a story such as this, it makes for the basis of a great mystery and I had actually hoped for the suspense to be a little thicker but it was better than most "TV" which I have seen recently.
