Did anyone watch this?

I taped it, and had forgotten that a couple of years ago there was a tv film called An Invitation to Murder which seemed to be based on the Agatha Christie story "And Then There Were None".

Had I remembered I wouldn't have bothered recording this second one.

And without making it personal, but it made me wonder as I dont know, is Mischa Barton thought to be a good actress, or does she have a star status.

As the main character she is so bad, I just felt embarrassed for her and stopped watching.

Hmm

As far as I'm aware she doesn't have much star status

Thanks - I wonder why they have now made 2 films with her as the lead.

Maybe other people enjoyed them, and I am being a bit stern.

I just wanted something a bit light hearted, and not too grim.

I've taped it. Not sure why as I'm sure I turned the first off part way through and thought Mischa Barton was a terrible actress in Neighbours. It's the only other thing I've seen her in so not sure what she's supposed to be famous for?

Well mayabe she isn't famous.

I was just trying to work out how come they have made a second fillm starring her, when looking at old reviews most said the first one was not that good.

She was famous back in the day when she was in The OC

But I don't think she's a big name now...
