The Murder Room
London's Dupayne Museum is in danger of closing since one of the trustees feels that the money expended on preserving the past could be better spent addressing the problems of living people. One of the museum's collections concerns murders committed between the world wars. When a killing that reflects one of the cases on display occurs, history seems to be repeating itself.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
This adaptation of P.D. James's novel constructs a classic whodunit, relying on the atmosphere of a closed community and an intellectual puzzle. The director explores themes of obsession with the past and moral responsibility, working with the idea of archival violence resurfacing in the present.
Those who tire of fast-paced action will appreciate the deliberate, character-driven mystery. What lingers after is a sense of cold, almost clinical elegance framing human malice. — MovieFinder Editorial
