Speaker 2 (00:01):
This goes way beyond normal police work. This is something
even I've got experienced.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
I've now seen all three of the Knives Out mysteries,
and the latest, starring Daniel Craig as the suave Southern
detective Benoi Blanc, might be the best of the three.
It's called Wake Up, Dead Man, a Knives Out mystery.
This time, the crime involves a murder in a Catholic church.
The victim is the Fire and Brimstone preacher Monsignor Jefferson Wicks,
played by Josh Brolin. The plot involves one of those
(00:29):
locked room mysteries that so amaze us, and the suspects
are many, including a variety of oddball congregants and a
character played by Glenn Close as the monsignor's rather deranged
number one Aide, a young guilt ridden priest formerly a
boxer who ended up killing a man in the ring,
is played splendidly by Josh O'Connor, and he turns out
to be the main suspect for much of the film.
(00:50):
And if you like a good mystery, you're in for
a fabulous ride. Wake Up, Dead Man, A Knives Out
Mystery on Netflix, and that's now streaming with Jordan WBZ,

Betrayal Season 5
Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
