Sleuth

Michael Caine and Laurence Olivier star in this 1972 suspense film from Joseph Mankiewicz.

A cat and mouse game between a man who loves games and his wife's lover. What does he know? How far is he willing to go in this battle of wits? Will it turn deadly?

Both actors are superb and the suspense builds nicely. Highly recommended.

Bunny Lake is Missing

1965 film directed by Otto Preminger and starring Laurence Olivier, Carol Lynley, and Keir Dullea.

Sometimes dreary, sometimes suspenseful look at an investigation into the disappearance of a child. The question eventuall becomes was there ever a child to begin with?

At times interesting going, other times it might drag on....but interesting and worth a look.
