Knives Out

Harlan Thrombey is dead after his eighty-fifth birthday, and every relative in the house has a theory that leaves them the money. Johnson builds a whodunit that tells you a great deal early and then changes the question. Daniel Craig’s Blanc is the detective who seems to be enjoying the rug. Ana de Armas’s Marta is the nurse who cannot lie without being sick. The Lionsgate trailer is the sweater and the donut. The film is on Marta’s side before the family notices.
