How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A breezy 1930s mystery where a dapper detective and his temperamental Scottish terrier untangle a locked-room murder with equal parts wit and procedural cleverness. It's light on its feet and built for the pleasure of the puzzle.
