Though the character of Benoit Blanc’s male lover is still not revealed and Daniel Craig said in the press conference, “No spoilers but who wouldn’t want to live with that person?”
The film had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival last month and the movie was highly praised by the audience and the early reviews read “so much fun” and “an enormously pleasant movie that is at least as amusing as the previous tour, if not more.”
This film is a sequel to the 2019 film Knives Out and it is the second film of the franchise that comes with a new story and cast and also draws inspiration from the Hercule Poirot detective novel series by Agatha Christie. Apart from the eccentric plot, cinematography and picturesque location, the title of the film also holds a special attraction for the audience.
