In the 1970s the British film industry saw two of its biggest successes with its adaptations of "Murder on the Orient Express" and "Death on the Nile." Thus, producers were eager to bring more of Agatha Christie’s works on the screen. To replicate their previous two hits, John Brabourne and Richard Goodwin optioned "The Mirror Crack’d From Side to Side." Angela Lansbury played Miss Marple. At her side: Rock Hudson, Elizabeth Taylor, Tony Curtis, Kim Novak, Edward Fox, and Geraldine Chaplin. A large part of the script for "The Mirror Crack’d" is devoted to jibes and insults exchanged between movie stars, their producer, and director. It is 1953 and everybody is on edge as they arrive in the sleepy English village of St. Mary Mead, home of Miss Marple, to make a new film. The director hates the producer, who is intimate with the film’s star, who hates her co-star, who is married to the director. Said co-star, Marina, knows she is past her prime, but is looking forward to cutting her teeth on a historical epic. Unfortunately, from the beginning nothing goes according to plan. And soon there is a body. By 1980, John Cameron had long since cut his teeth in film. Among his biggest successes to that date were Ken Loach’s "Kes" (1969), and "A Touch for Class" (1973), which had garnered him an Oscar nomination.
