Like a mystery?

The Red River Theatres of Concord will hold their "I Love A Mystery" film series this month that will feature four classic mystery films: Green for Danger, The Spiral Staircase, The Kennel Murder Case, and Witness for the Prosecution. Snacks each evening will be sponsored by Margaritas Restaurant. You can purchase tickets at Red River Theatres or on their website. Here's the schedule:

April 8-10 (7:00 p.m.) GREEN FOR DANGER (1946)
During the German doodlebug raids of 1944, a double murder is committed at an emergency hospital on the outskirts of London. Scotland Yard Inspector Cockrill is dispatched to the scene to solve the crimes.

April 15-17 (7:00 p.m.) THE SPIRAL STAIRCASE (1946)
A quaint New England town is terrorized by a sinister killer of handicapped women. Young Helen is a servant for an affluent family. She has been mute since witnessing her parents perish in a fire. Will she be the next victim?

April 22-24 (7:00 p.m.) THE KENNEL MURDER CASE (1933)
A dead man is found in a room where all the windows are locked and the only door is securely bolted from the inside. The police call it suicide. Enter private detective Philo Vance. He thinks it's murder and believes there are seven potential suspects.

April 29-May 1 (7:00 p.m.) WITNESS FOR THE PROSECUTION (1957)
A convalescent London barrister is persuaded to defend a likable American chap accused of murdering a rich old woman. One problem: the American's German wife provides his only alibi, but it turns out they're not legally married.
