Rating:  - Helen Hayes the great Miss Jane Marples
I loved watching this movie "Murder with Mirrors" over and over....this tv movie of Agatha Christie was superb very enjoyable performances by great actors Helen Hayes, Bette Davis, Leo McKern, Frances De La Tour, John Mills, Dorothy Tutin, Liane Langand, James Coombes and John Laughlin. I enjoyed Frances performance as the housekeeper Mrs. Bellaver. The chemistry between Miss Marple (Helen Hayes) and Inspector (Leo Mckern) was superb as a comedy team guessing the manor house murders.
Rating: - Murder With Mirrors
Bette Davis and Helen Hayes, 2 of the greatest ladies of the American Cinema united for the first time in a movie. People may wonder why Helen Hayes who is older than Bette Davis seems to have more zip than Miss Davis. The reasn was that Miss Davis was ill during filming of the film.
No woman in all of England has a reputation quite like that of Miss Jane Marple. Scotland Yard knows her well - an infuriating meddler, but one who is insightful and infinitely useful when it comes to an ... Read More
Rating:  - Well Mounted Agatha Christie Mystery Starring Veterans Helen Hayes And Bette Davis
Agatha Christie has enjoyed a long period of popularity with Filmmakers with her novels always proving popular sources for some very entertaining films.

Despite this minor status and a not totally exciting mystery story ... Read More
Rating: - Helen Hayes as Miss Marple
I wanted to have a movie that had Helen Hayes in it because I always loved her as an actress, (I used to watch a lot of 40's movies). I love murder mysteries. This one was/is a relic. She was absolutely delightful. I would recommend this VHS to anyone who loves Helen Hayes. However, I would have liked the movie better if they had left Bette Davis out. She was pathetic. Katherine Hepburn did a better job in her last movie before she died (and she was indeed very sick).
Rating:  - Not as spellbinding as the Joan Hickson version
This is an entertaining performance for the Agatha Christie fan, with a taleneted lead and supporting cast that includes Helen Hayes, Bette Davis, and Tim Roth. I, however, recommend the BBC version of this film entitled They Do It With Mirrors, starring Joan Hickson as Miss Marple. The story is more tightly woven, with what I found to be more interesting characterizations of some of the lead characters, particularly Miss Marple's old friend and main character Carrie Louise. The drama and intensity ... Read More
