[soc.feminism] female detectives in movies

For the person who posted asking for movies with female detectives: I
read in the Sunday Chronicle that several of the Miss Marple movies
have just been released.  They are:

Murder Ahoy (1964)
Murder at the Gallop (1963)
Murder Most Foul (1965)
Murder, She Said (1962)

These all star Margaret Rutherford as Miss Marple; she's not really my
idea of what Miss Marple is like, but she's pretty good.  If you like
these movies, reading the books is worthwhile; I think her character
and character-analysis abilities are better displayed in the books.
