Grumpy

1923 · 60 min

A creaky but charming silent whodunit that unfolds like a cozy drawing-room puzzle, rewarding patience with gentle suspense and old-fashioned warmth.

Overview
Andrew Bullivant, a retired lawyer known as "Grumpy" for his irascibility, calls on all his experience and powers of deduction to expose Chamberlin Jarvis as the thief of a valuable diamond being transported by Ernest Heron. A gardenia is the clue; and Virginia Bullivant, Ernest's sweetheart, is Jarvis' unwitting dupe.
