Review of Jigsaw

Jigsaw (1962)
8/10
Very Interesting Film
25 May 2021
Fast paced and wordy, Jigsaw tells the story of what appears to them to be a baffling murder.

Very much ahead of its time.

As in Dixon of Dock Green, Jack Warner seems too old and lacking in mobility to play a policeman, but he was good in the role and had a lot of machine-gun dialogue.

The film is shot in and around Brighton and features Saltdean and Lewes as well, which is of interest to me as I live in the area.

The film finishes very abruptly and I didn't consider the final piece of the jigsaw as being particularly significant when making a a case.

I did guess the perpetrator, although the person concerned did not really fit the role of a lothario with women swooning over him.
