However, supporting Carell and Juliette Binoche is the Burns family, whose interaction with each other is what makes this film worth watching.
Take two; CJSF A&E volunteer, Kelsey Singbeil, viewed the 2007 remake of Sleuth, a 1972 film adaptation by Anthony Schaffer.

Dark and dreary. Beautiful. Three words that set the mood of The Man From London, a Hungarian gem in this year's Vancouver International Film Festival.
