The Last of Sheila (1973)
Great mystery thriller starring an ensemble cast including James Coburn, James Mason, Richard Benjamin, Racquel Welch, Ian McShane, Joan Hacket & Dyann Cannon. This is the movie which was the inspiration for both Knives Out movies. I’ve seen it several times & i still find it an amazing & very entertaining classic thriller! What’s amazing is that it was co-written by legendary actor Anthony Perkins. The story is about a millionaire movie producer (Coburn) who decides to invite 6 of his showbusiness friends for a cruise on his yacht to the french riviera in order to play a murder/mystery game that he organized in order to try to find who was behind the hit & run murder of his wife a uear earlier. I rate it 5 out of 5 stars & will likely watch it again in a year or two. Highly recommended!
