8 | ** Miss Marple's friend Mr. Stringer is played by Creator/MargaretRutherford's husband Stringer Davis. |
9 | ** Even more than that, a few references in ''Murder Most Foul'' suggest that Mr. Stringer's first name is James. As was the first name of the real-life Stringer Davis ("Stringer Davis" being a stage name). |
10 | * DisownedAdaptation: Downplayed. Though Christie voiced dissatisfaction with the films due to their plot changes and DenserAndWackier tone, she did still dedicate the novel, ''The Mirror Crack'd From Side to Side'' to Creator/MargaretRutherford "in admiration". They got on quite well in real life. |
11 | * RealitySubtext: In ''Murder Most Foul'', the villain appears to have some hereditary violent insanity. Creator/MargaretRutherford herself was terrified that this would happen to her, as her father spent a great deal of time in asylums after murdering his own father and her mother ended up committing suicide while pregnant. |
