Sleuth (Theatre) | comment |
A Tony Award-winning 1970 mystery/thriller play by Anthony Shaffer, which has twice been adapted for the screen.Andrew Wyke, a successful mystery author, realizes his wife is having an affair with the middle-classnote (his actual occupation varies from version to version) Milo Tindle. Finding in Milo an opportunity to divorce his wife, but wishing to avoid having to pay alimony, Andrew proposes for the younger man to burgle the couple's stately country house; Milo can get rich off his loot, while the insurance company will handsomely reimburse Andrew. Milo complies, but just as he pulls it off, things get really complicated.Shaffer himself wrote the adaptation for the 1972 film, which was directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz and stars Laurence Olivier as Andrew and Michael Caine as Milo. The second film version, released in 2007, was directed by Kenneth Branagh and scripted by Harold Pinter; Michael Caine stars again, this time as Andrew, with Jude Law appearing as Milo. | |

Shut Up, Hannibal!: Andrew lectures Milo about the upper class being smarter and better, and believes his amateur sleuthing is superior to real-life detective work. Milo and Inspector Doppler basically the same person go out of the way to prove Andrew so very wrong about both. | |

Sleuth (Theatre) / int_5963b221 | comment |
Eviler than Thou: Andrew is at first clearly the more reprehensible man. However, when Milo retaliates he does so in a manner that will completely ruin Andrew's life rather than just humiliate him. You could say that Andrew is still the worse person since he responds to Milo's game by murdering him, but the fact that Milo was trying to bait him into this all along serves as an argument that he's even worse. | |

Only One Plausible Suspect | |
Sleuth (Theatre) / int_7bfb7ed7 | comment |
Only One Plausible Suspect: When Inspector Doppler turns up and announces that Milo has been murdered, Andrew is the only plausible suspect; since he and Milo are the only two significant characters up this point, and it obviously wasn't Milo, the rules of drama dictate that nobody could have done it if not Andrew. Subverted: nobody did do it; it's all a bit of fakery as part of Milo's revenge. | |

Sleuth (Theatre) / int_957e5fc2 | comment |
Villainous Breakdown: In the closing scene, Milo's final act before succumbing to his gunshot wound is to jam the button that operates Andrew's creepy toys, who suddenly spring to life and start laughing, but now at Andrew and not with him. Coupled with the police lights illuminating his wall, the detectives hammering on his front door having heard a gunshot inside, and Milo's dead body right in the middle of the floor, it is made very clear that Andrew has no way out, and he breaks down sobbing. | |

Hollywood Blanks: A particularly egregious example. Pressed right against the head, the gun will kill you, blanks or not. Of course, it's possible that Andrew was using specially made blanks where nothing comes out of the gun, used for simulating shooting oneself in the head. But it would still probably cause serious hearing damage. | |

Evil Plan | |
Sleuth (Theatre) / int_f2d8e3c2 | comment |
Evil Plan/Kansas City Shuffle: The scheme in the opening paragraph was just a precursor to Andrew's real scheme: to humiliate Milo, by means of shooting him with blanks, because he, a middle-class son of immigrants, dared to mingle with the upper class. It's the former because it starts and drives the plot. It's the latter because the one being schemed thought they knew where to look and what was going on but the real scheme is coming from another direction. From there it gets a lot more complicated. | |
