i enjoyed it very much. older movies meander a lot and it feels more like an adventure than new ones even if they technically go nowhere (the train is stopped for like an hour movie time!) but i guess its also a whole different 'world'. the movie was portraying 1935 sooo. anyways the detective was okay. i think his mannerisms are supposed to be inherently funny but i dont really find them that subversive. aside from his particular bluntness at points and some banter. the twist is fun and i enjoy how the detective behaves about it.
