      Deke P Very interesting philosophically. Dying PHILOSOPHY PROF, decides to commit a socially useful murder. I should recommend to my Philosophy Prof. And it starred as the Prof, one of my all time old favorite actors, Thomas Mitchell, who BTW died of Mesothelioma, one of the movies advertisers on The Movie Channel. Giving it 3 1/2 RT stars, "Good, I recommend" Saw it again, on tv, Jan 19, 2023 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member like the pic 'nothing sacred' only lead changed from female to male Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
