** To continue in this theme, in the 1987 adaptation of Have His Carcase, Harriet Vane (as played by Harriet Walter) does a phenomenal job playing a discovery of a body that actually seems realistic- with all of the disgust and retching that you would expect from unexpectedly finding a bloody and dripping corpse. It makes you realize that in many other on-screen depictions of people finding bodies, the finders just seem underwhelmed.

* I was a bit put off by Harriet's reaction to a corpse in the film of the LordPeterWimsey book ''Have his Carcase'', thinking she was being shown as something of a weak woman. Then, I read how this scene in the book comments on how people in detective stories always treat discovered corpses nonchalantly, whereas a real person would act like Harriet.
