How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A sophisticated couple breeze through a jazz-club murder investigation with sharp wit and effortless chemistry, treating sleuthing as an excuse for witty banter and cocktails. It's the kind of mystery that matters less for answers than for the elegant company you keep while watching.
