Man Robert.

Fantastic, actually.

Right now, Thanks for having me.

Absolutely.

So do you have a favorite murder mystery from this list?

Yes, one of part secular.

The Mounties Falcon 1941.

Most people don't know.

It's actually an adaption off a pulpy kind of short story.

That iteration was actually the third remake for that film, so it was a kind of a story that been bouncing around.

It was kind of a B movie in some ways.

Humphrey Bogart.

This is kind of like the film that really launched his career as Humphrey Bogart.

Before then, he'd been playing Ah, lot of heels, a lot of bad guys and gangster films with Cagney.

But this is the one him, as Detective Sam Spain hunting the Model T stopping this statue that everyone hunting for that supposedly incredibly valuable that we later find out, is kind of a McGuffin.

But it's one of the first times we see the teeming of Bogart with Cindy Green Street and Peter Lawrie.

That same scene would re occurring and Casablanca, for instance.

But everything about this film is just It's fantastic.

It's an absolute classic.

Do you think we're due for a remake?

I think I mean I think it's definitely a film that could be remade it.

Like I said it was.

This was the third remake, you know?

Certainly.

Yeah, I mean, I do think it's It's such a simple story.

Why it succeeds, especially based off just a small objects, like just a statue and the romance that's happening between Bogart and his co star.

Yeah, I think we could we could definitely do for ah remake, maybe something that is diverse And representative, You heard it here.

First, Robert Daniels will be producing a remake of The Maltese Falcon.

It's gonna be great.

Can't wait now.

Death on the Nile, which is the follow up to the murder on the Orient Express, is arriving soon.

There seems to be like a trend of ensemble based murder mysteries.

Is there any that you recommend from this list that people could watch right now?

Yeah.

I mean, I think a recent example is probably nods out from Ryan Johnson.

Um, very much is made in that Agatha Christie tradition.

It's also like Columbo, you know, it begins with you seeing the murder, and then you kind of have to work backwards to what happened in the murder, but it also works.

I've seen this Agatha Christie, where Daniel Craig plays Benoit Blanc, who is kind of like this Hercule Poirot kind of character that you'd see, you know, Mr Mystery on the Orient Express or on the Nile.

Yeah, I mean, it's a funny film.

It's a film that is very aware of the tropes of a murder mystery, and it plays a to great effect.

Many, many twists as well.

Yeah, and also the sweater.

Let's not forget the sweater I went out and bought.

Everyone loves that movie.

It's a great yeah, the sweater and then Daniel Craig's donut inside the doughnut.

There's a spin off of that one, too, so you're going to see this is watch.

Which brings me to my next question.

Many films on the list have detectives with the multiple films.

I guess you know, her kill Poirot would be it.

You know, I've always been a fan of that Agatha Christie character.

Um, and, you know, death on an island murder on the Orient Express are some of my favorite murder mystery films.

And I mean, it's one of those also those characters that it's kind of like, you know, James Bond, like so many people have played them.

Each person puts their different spin on him.
