The Last of Sheila is coming out on DVD this April!
For those who aren't familiar with it, this is the perfect puzzle movie. Yes, it's better than Sleuth, which is high praise, indeed. Better than any ten other whodunit movies put together.
The less said about the plot (other than that it involves mysteries on a yacht), the better, but suffice to say, it was written by Tony Perkins and Steven Sondheim (remember, Sondheim is also a damned talented cruciverbalist), and directed by Herbert Ross. The cast is great, too.
Anyone who enjoys witty puzzles -- and I know there are a ton of you on my friends list -- needs this movie.

The only thing about the movie that I would judge as subpar is Raquel Welch's acting, although she does spend the movie looking quite good, as usual. :)
