    I'm sure everybody here knows about it, but just in case, the four movies Margaret Rutherford made as Miss Marple must absolutely be seen. Pure delight.

      4:50 From Paddington was the first one i saw and then I was hooked! Then I found out my Grandma had all the books and I read them all. Margaret Rutherford was *the* best Miss Marple. I don't much care for Joan Hickson.

    Margaret Rutherford was one of a kind, in the best possible way: quirky, humorous, quick-witted, very talented, unique in her appearance, definitely English. Agatha Christie's Miss Marple was a perfect fit for her. Plus, believe it or not, she was an Oscar winner. She was an ideal "aunt." Warm-hearted.

    This is a wonderful movie, with a plethora of British comedy talent, a delicious sense of irony, and, above all, a superb sense of fun. Dame Margaret Rutherford is, of course, magnificent, but she is supported by a stellar cast of comic actors, like Ronald Shiner, and a pre-Carry On Sid James. An absolute classic, many thanks for uploading this.

      @Greg Bloomfield What a lovely rememberance, you speak well of it and I loved reading it! My Great Gram Trone was a minister's wife (Lay- he preached everywhere, especially during the depression when the litttle river towns along the Illinois had little to no means to pay for parsonages, etc. He was a shopkeeper on the river and often hired "negroes" when others would not. He said, "the Black man has an extra soul in him, he has to toil and work for little to no means and he still sings." He wrote down a spiritual they were singing as they lined up and unloaded a barge-"I'm so glad that trouble don't last always"- until the internet, I had never discovered if that was a real song or not.) G Trone was rather pricklish but I observed so many times with her what you speak of- she treated "bums" with dignity unlike anyone else I had ever seen. Same thing- she would serve them at the table, allow them to clean up. Even if they were starving though, she'd make them "use their manners" at the table- and they did. Thank you for helping me today to remember perhaps where the generosity in my spirit came from too.

      I wouldn't say that she had the judgmental morals of any time. She had what I would call Common Sense morality. As a matter of fact one of the greatest people of his time President Brigham Young of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints believes that prostitutes should be accepted into society and treated with respect and equal access to all areas of society for it was not they who were causing the sin but the men and their wives who accepted their husbands sin. Utah was the only place in the country where a woman of ill repute could own her home vote go into any store in town at the same time another woman did go to the theater and have seats in a box or on the floor if she wanted go to a restaurant and not be ashamed. If an incident happened where a woman was rebuked or looked down upon in his presence oh boy were you given an earful for he felt that these women were forced into a situation not by their choosing mostly and let's get it let's be truthful most of these women start out as young children somewhere along the line they have to give in to survive maybe today they have a choice but back before when the morality issues were so strong it wasn't a choice it was by force if you wanted to live.
      Many women in UK & Europe killed themselves after the war because they couldn't hold their heads up in society for they had survived selling themselves simply to feed their children or themselves during the war. Their neighbors would not forgive them. The Conquering governments labeled many women who had fallen in love with conquering servicemen as prostitutes even though they were not. Many even held good jobs or lived at home with their parents. Labeled thusly they couldn't be brought into the Conquering countriesas their character was questionable. These governments felt their men should be going back and marrying the widowed or a now multitude of overabundance of women since so many young men had died. I had a friend who went to Europe in the 80s for the military & shared with me how sad it was and why there was a generation in Europe that couldn't forgive the consequences of the war. Happiness was all they wanted but there wasn't anyone to find happiness with for the streets, buses, restaurants theaters Etc everywhere you looked a sea of gray-haired aging women, no men their ages in sight A continent destroyed by war totaling a quarter century of conflict was left in emotional ruin that no rebuilding process could ever heal.

    Watching her lovely films, you would never believe that Margaret Rutherford suffered such deep debilitating depression that in her later years she had electric shock treatment which horrifically damaged her memory so much she could not recall a lot of her past life e,g she kept her Oscar on the fire mantle yet she could not remember when or why she won it. Such a shame. Margaret was Unique and cannot help but cheer you up - she was a marvellous actress and a stunningly beautiful personality who loved people but unfortunately it is well known that two people whom she helped and took into her home, robbed her and stole her Oscar and other items and forged her will and took all her money and items - this woman was taken to court and she got away with it! and vanished taking Margarets money with her, we still do not know whom she sold the Oscar, it is still missing. Her husband Stringer was so affected by his wife’s death, he died not long after which was a lucky escape because the woman who stole his wife’s money, was their housekeeper and she tried to get Stringer to marry her, death prevented that. Margarets mother hung herself when Margaret was 2 years old and a few years later her father killed his own father and spent the rest of his life in Broadmore Mental Hospital. Margaret Rutherford only started acting when she was in her 40’s and soon became a Dame of the British Empire. What a lovely lady who brought others such joy with her films whilst she herself suffered in silence.A true trooper who loved to make people happy. ❤️ We love her films and we love her. ❤️

    THE ACTRESS WHO HAD PLAYED AUNT CLARE WAS DEFINITELY A BLESSING AND A REAL GEM. I LOVED THE WAY SHE CAREFULLY LIVED AROUND EVERYONE. SHE WAS AN UNSELFISH REASSURING EXUBERANT EXAMPLE CHRISTLIKE CHARACTER FULL OF LIFE WITH A MISSION TO ACCOMPLISH. WELL DONE AUNT CLARE I LEARNED SOMETHING MORE TO ADD TO MY CHRISTIAN LIFESTYLE.
