***
Knives Out (2019) was the cinematic equivalent of a lightning bolt. By injecting a mostly forgotten film genre with colour, energy and humour, it became one of the most well-regarded films of 2019, even earning itself an Oscar nomination for Best Original Screenplay in a highly competitive year. The fact that a modern take on an Agatha Christie-style story was recognised for its originality should be commended.
