The whole looks wonderful, but there are still many logical incomprehensible points in the process, which are easy to play.

It seems that the plot is meticulous, but in fact I think there are still some inconsistencies in the logic, such as:

1. If the key is so important, wouldn't it be okay to call the killer in advance? Tired of stealing and stealing?

2. If you want the police to think that the murderer entered through the window, do some tricks to the window in advance, so that the murderer really enters through the window, won't it be all solved? Now the police can tell in a second that it came in through the door. A person with such a precise mind, even a person who wipes his fingerprints when the murderer touches everything, would not have thought that the murderer would leave footprints when he entered through the backyard window?

3. Even if the male protagonist knows the murderer is dead when he comes home, he will take a look at the place where the key is hidden at the door when he goes home. It only takes 1 second, so there is no reason not to look at it, not to mention that the female protagonist has been sentenced for so long since she was caught. The Lord never looked under the carpet at the stairwell?

4. The male protagonist's finances are too transparent, right? The police know how many pounds they spend each time? And the case is not over yet, why is the male protagonist hurriedly taking the £1,000 hidden outside home? To take a step back, the male protagonist has said before that when it comes to money, he says he gambles on dogs, as long as he refuses to admit it, even 1,000 pounds can be said to be private money. What can you do if you kill the police and refuse to recognize the police? Woolen cloth? In the end, he actually depended on the heroine. How stupid is this? He can notify the lawyer to prevent the cheating man from telling the heroine, but can he stop the police from asking the heroine? Once the case has new doubts about the heroine, what should I do if it is postponed? Isn't the hero causing trouble for himself? The male protagonist seems to be extremely smart in the front, but many of the actions in the back are extremely stupid.

5. What if the male protagonist took the door key. The door key was my spare key from a long time ago. I forgot it. As for why the key in the female protagonist’s bag can’t open the door, I have to ask the female protagonist. trick? The murderer is dead, is there any evidence that the murderer must be hired by the male protagonist? The evidence of the heroine is solid death certificate, and the hero is all reasoning, and there is no evidence at all.

During the viewing process, it is easy to make plays, and it is easy to jump out of doubts. Why does he do this? There will be a kaka feeling. Compared with "The Witness for the Prosecution" and "Peachy Bloody Case", it is really a section of the same era.

Dial M for Murder quotes

  • Mark Halliday: When did you find out, sir?

    Chief Insp. Hubbard: Well, the first clue came quite by accident.

    [to Margot]

    Chief Insp. Hubbard: We discovered that your husband had been spending a large number of pound notes all over the place - it ran into over three hundred pounds - and it appeared to have started at about the time you were arrested. Now, I had to find out where he got that money, and how. Then I remembered that after you were arrested we searched this flat, and I saw a copy of his bank statement in that desk. So yesterday afternoon, I went to the prison and asked to see your handbag. While I was doing this, I managed to lift your latchkey. Highly irregular, of course, but my blood was up. And then this morning when your husband was out, I came back here to look at his statement. I never saw it... because I never got through that door. You see, the key that I'd taken from your handbag didn't fit the lock!

  • C.A. Swan: You know, I think I must have seen you somewhere since we left Cambridge.

    Tony Wendice: Ever been to Wimbledon?

    C.A. Swan: That's it! Wendice. Tony Wendice. What's all this about "Fisher"?

    Tony Wendice: What's all this about "Lesgate"?

    [embarrassed, Swan doesn't respond]

    Tony Wendice: Would you like a cigar?
