In eerie, post-World War II Venice on All Hallows' Eve, Hercule Poirot is now retired and living in self-imposed exile in the world's most glamorous city. But when Poirot reluctantly attends a séance at a decaying, haunted palazzo, one of the guests is murdered, thrusting the detective into a sinister world of shadows and secrets. Ten years after the events of Death on the Nile (2022), Belgian master detective Hercule Poirot now enjoys a sleuthing-free retirement in 1947 Venice, Italy. But a leopard never changes its spots. Suspicious by nature, Poirot reluctantly accompanies an insisting mystery novelist friend to a Halloween séance to debunk the myth about the supernatural. Instead, a gruesome murder has both desperate believers and shrewd cynics guessing. After all, everyone has skeletons in their closet. As the unprepared guests' hushed whispers echo off the barren walls, a sinister blend of tingling uncertainty and lingering dread invites hair-raising questions. Is the pained hostess' home haunted? With the past's guilty secrets demanding closure and justice, is weary Poirot starting to see ghosts? The CAST Senior Center is partnering with the New Ulm Public Library to bring you Movie Matinees for Seniors. Held in the Meeting Room in the lower level of the New Ulm Public Library, we will present a different movie each Friday afternoon at 1pm. These movies are free, and everyone is welcome to attend. No preregistration needed. Made possible by the Optimist Club of New Ulm. For 2024, our monthly movie theme is “Through the Decades”. We will be showing movies from the Top 100 Movies list of their decade, beginning with the 1930s in March and ending with the 2020s in December.
