Mysteries!
So as you know, we drew 'mystery' for our genre in the 48 Hour Film Project. Which got me thinking -- when was the last time you saw a mystery movie in the theater? Seriously?
I have a theory that mysteries these days are the realm of the 1-hour TV show, like Law and Order and Monk, but that the general public doesn't have the patience for 2-hour mystery movies in the cinema. Just a thought.
What was the last mystery movie you saw in the theater? Post in the comments!
We saw Identity last year and I loved it! Of course, I'm an Agatha Christie junkie, and this was a modern, more psychological take on And Then There Were None, so I may be biased.
