I've been watching MM in chronological order. I'm pretty sure that I saw all of them twenty years ago, but luckily I've forgotten the details. Death of a Stranger must be the most convoluted plot ever, but it did all come together in the end. Barnaby put his intuition intuition into warp drive to solve this one.

I watched this movie on TCM today, having never heard of it before. It is all around great in a 1950s sort of way. Excellent recreation of gay Paree and a creepy hotel full of sinister staff. The director uses just enough French to convey the confusion and desperation of the heroine, who doesn't speak French.

All in all, a well-spent hour and a half.
