The art of adaption may lay in the prospect of change, of finding another way to describe the heart being fulfilled and the mind being able to reflect on the need for stimulation; occasionally this approach works in cinema, sometimes it fails and bombs, the memory of what came before holding a tight rein on the audience’s appreciation.

There is always room for the whodunnit genre to bring forth a new detective to the public’s attention; and in a world that salutes the genius of Agatha Christie’s creations and the drama brought forward in the likes of Sherlock Holmes, Benoit Blanc might just be the next detective in which to place faith in.
