Five Angles on Murder
CrimeDramaMystery88 min
A woman has been murdered, and the investigation turns on a problem stranger than the crime itself: no one seems to agree on who she was. As police question the people around her, each witness offers a sharply different portrait, shaped by resentment, desire, fear, or self-protection. The case unfolds through these conflicting accounts, so the dead woman becomes at once sympathetic, manipulative, vulnerable, and dangerous. What happened matters, but so does why everyone remembers her differently. Jean Kent and Dirk Bogarde appear in a mystery that follows the detective work through clashing testimony, where every new angle on the victim makes the truth harder to pin down.
